The Contractor will be finishing up patching and surfacing grinding on 70 ^th Street between Colby Avenue and Hickman Road the week of October 1st .  Please follow traffic control signs to provide a safe work environment.   All work is weather dependent.  

We would like to extend our appreciation to the local organizations and musicians who supported the Windsor Heights Yappy Hour event this September. Unfortunately, the weather was a challenge for us this year and limited the Yappy Hour events at the dog park. We hope you will be able to visit the organizations below and catch a concert from one of the musicians within the Des Moines area.

Thank you to the organizations and talented musicians who helped make Yappy Hour possible.

The number #1 goal from the strategic planning session was to review our storm water. Bolton and Menk will present their report of the storm water system infrastructure analysis on Monday, October 1, 2018 at the City Council Meeting at 6:00 p.m. The city wide storm water report will provide a storm water management plan that models the existing storm water system and creates a priority list of recommended improvements that address any deficiencies in the existing storm sewer system.

The City would like to invite the public to an input and informational meeting to be held on Monday, November 12, 2018 at 5:30-7:00 p.m. at the Community Event Center. City Engineers from Bolton & Menk will provide displays, showing the layout of the proposed roadway and streetscape elements including street lighting, way-finding signage, monumentation and corridor entrance signage. This is the time for residents to come and ask questions about the project.  More details about the meeting will follow in upcoming newsletters.
