Sauk Rapids Director of Public Works Pete Eckhoff says work on the water tower is less than one week away from being finished. Contractors had to order extra red paint, which took a few days to come in. While the colors on the tower might look a bit different, the city says the colors are basically the same, just not as faded as the older colors. Craig Nelson, director of utilities, also said some other internal work remains to be done, such as chlorinating the inside and taking bacteria samples. The tower should be completely finished by around Thursday, Aug. 6.
