The town did some sealing on Park Avenue and Broadway last year, and additional sections this year. Curbing crews will soon be in Moo- somin in advance of paving crews in early September.

The two miles of paving was completed at a cost of $620,000. The RM was starting to see some failures in the pavement and planned to recap one mile of road in 2021, saw some additional failures on the next mile of road and didn’t want to see the invest- ment in that road lost, so decided to repave a second mile with a two-inch lift to handle the heavier loads on the lake road.
