- Parkview Street from the dead end to Michigan Street
- Center Street from Novelty Street to Parkview Street
- Adams Street from Plum Street to Michigan Street

In addition to the city streets, the final paving project on the docket is for the Plymouth Park Department, which will see improvements to the Price's Pond driveway and parking area.
The board has taken all bids under advisement to allow for a thorough review by City Engineer Dan Sellers. Sellers is expected to present his final recommendation to the Board of Public Works and Safety at their next scheduled meeting on Monday, April 27th.
