Interim city manager reports 57 tons cleared, outlines Vine Street rehab and upcoming community plan meetings
Summary
Interim City Manager Lori Phillips reported the city removed 57 tons of rubbish during a recent cleanup, outlined a Vine Street rehabilitation project (sidewalk replacement, utilities moved underground, 16 new light poles, Jan. 6 start to mid-May completion), and listed upcoming community comprehensive plan meetings and survey availability.
Interim City Manager Lori Phillips told the Poplar Bluff City Council that the city's recent cleanup removed 57 tons of rubbish and thanked the street and planning departments and volunteers. She briefed the council on several projects and community-engagement opportunities.
Phillips said a pre-construction meeting was held for the Vine Street rehabilitation project. Work planned for the north side of Vine Street (between 5th Street and Broadway) will replace sidewalks, relocate overhead utilities underground and install 16 new light poles. The city is aiming to begin construction around Jan. 6 and complete the work around mid-May (dates presented as planned timelines).
Phillips also announced the schedule for the first of six community comprehensive plan meetings and listed locations and times; she said meeting details and a survey link are posted on the city's Facebook page and website. On the timing of Halloween trick-or-treating, she clarified, "It is on the day that it falls on," noting the city does not regulate the date.
Following the report, there was no further business and the council moved to adjourn.
