Peru—Highway Superintendent Michael announced his plan for highway paving at the town board’s May 13, 2024 meeting. Paving should begin in about three weeks. Until then, Peru will assist the Town of Ausable with its paving projects. Then, Ausable will assist Peru.  

Farrell’s initial project will involve paving the remaining half of John Boswell Road. Subsequently, he will lay a binder on Davern Road and pave Rock Road and Locust Drive.  

Farrell will use $404,000 in NYS Consolidated Local Street and Highway Improvement Program (CHIPS) monies to pay for the projects. He commented, “When I run out of money, I’ll stop.”  Farrell relies on CHIPS money for virtually all the town’s paving projects.
