The main reason is money, said Kayla Dixon, the director of engineering and operations for the city.
"Basically when we looked at our final project list, we kind of ran out of budget envelope for this year," she said.
The city has budgeted $4M for 2022, and $4.7M for 2023 to complete the job.
"We do have to move forward with specific projects, like our water main replacements, so, the Balmoral one was one that we could defer."
Dixon said the next phases of the work have been moved to 2022, and work will be completed between Central Avenue and Beverly Street in 2023.
