"Our goal in 2023 was to address major drainage concerns along with paving," said Charlestown Mayor Treva Hodges. "On the northeast side of town in the Glendale neighborhood and around the schools, a large culvert was replaced, along with extending sidewalks. Addressing drainage, curbs, sidewalks, and repaving High Street has been a focus, and was completed this week, in preparation for the upcoming Forest Edge apartment complex construction. We also continue to pave in the Pleasant Ridge neighborhood on streets where new housing construction has been completed."
