  • New sidewalks on the south side of Vilas Street from 10th to 15th
  • New sidewalks on the north side of Vilas Street from 20th to 22nd leading to Henry Leavenworth Elementary School
  • Repair of existing sidewalks and streets
  • New curbs, gutters and stormwater features
  • All new ADA ramps at each intersection

Currently construction is scheduled for 2025.
