Robertson Inc. has said that it would be willing to do driveways and other paving projects while they are in the area. The property owner would, of course, pay the cost of doing the paving. The property owner may call City Hall (573-222-3162) to be put on the paving list. If the property owner would like to have a cost estimate before the work is done, please let City Hall know
