Breslau property owners can expect to be hit up for their share of rehabilitating a municipal drain covering some 600 acres in the village, with the bills coming higher than original estimates.
The final cost to repair what’s known as Breslau Municipal Drain No. 1 hit $8.6 million, up from an estimated $7.5 million when the work began two years ago.
Landowners in the Elroy Acres subdivision and adjacent areas in Breslau are on the hook for a little more than 10 per cent of the overall cost, about $876,000, with most facing bills in the $1,000 to $7,000 range.
