StoryStreet Improvement Project on Hadley Avenue

Oakdale updates residents on street work, park plans, and fall events

The Oakdale City Council held its Monday morning meeting on September 23 to brief residents on several ongoing and upcoming projects, including street improvements, a new park opening, and opportunities to shape the future of Tanners Lake Park.

Meeting date: Sep 23, 2024
Published Jun 22, 2026

The city provided an update on the Hadley Avenue Street Improvement Project, which spans between 40th and 50th Streets. New light poles are scheduled to be installed in late September, pending the arrival of necessary components. Paving work will begin after the light poles are in place.

With fall approaching, the city reminded residents that only three Oakdale Farmers Markets remain this season. The next market is scheduled for Wednesday from 2 to 6 PM at the City Hall parking lot, featuring local produce and goods.

The city is actively seeking community input on improvements to Tanners Lake Park. Two different design concepts have been developed, each offering different combinations of amenities. Residents can weigh in through a survey available until September 30, which will help the city refine its plans based on what the community wants to see at the park.

Looking ahead, Oakdale will celebrate the grand opening of Willowbrooke Commons, the city's newest park, on Saturday, October 12, from 1 to 3 PM. The event is open to the public.

[0:05] [Music] Welcome back to the Monday Morning

Minute for September 23. Let's get 60 seconds

[0:09] on the clock and get started. First, an

update on the Street Improvement Project

[0:13] on Hadley Avenue between 40th and 50th

Streets: new light pole installation is

[0:18] now tentatively planned for late-September as

the City is waiting for light components to

[0:22] ship. Paving will commence after the light

poles are installed. It's hard to believe,

[0:27] but only three Oakdale Farmers Markets are

left for the season. So, stop by the Market

[0:31] this Wednesday from 2 to 6 PM in the City Hall

parking lot for a wide variety of produce,

[0:36] flowers, and more from our outstanding local

vendors. A reminder that the City is seeking

[0:41] your feedback about two different concepts for

Tanners Lake Park that explore different mixes

[0:46] of site amenities. Input from residents and

park users about both concepts will help the

[0:51] City refine proposed improvements to prepare one

preferred concept for Tanners Lake Park. Take

[0:56] the survey at the link provided by September 30.

Finally, mark your calendars and save-the-date,

[1:02] Saturday, October 12 from 1 to 3 PM for a

celebration to remember for the grand opening

[1:06] of our newest City park, Willowbrooke Commons.

Check out the link provided for more information,

[1:11] and we hope to see you there. That's it. I'm

out of time. Have a great week, Oakdale. [Music]
