Summary
Mayor Dan Keller told the council Preston is in a strong financial position and outlined infrastructure priorities for 2026, including a $32,268,000 promissory note for a nearly complete wastewater plant and a $3.7 million federal grant for a 2-million-gallon water tank.
Mayor Daniel M. Keller delivered his sixth State of the City address on Jan. 12, 2026, saying "Preston City remains in a strong financial position" and reviewing key infrastructure projects planned for 2026.
Keller reported that a $32,268,000 promissory note was signed to fund the wastewater treatment plant, which the minutes describe as nearly complete and "the most technologically advanced in the U.S." He said plans for 2026 include 100% completion of the wastewater treatment plant, sewer-line infrastructure replacement, construction of a new 2-million-gallon water tank supported by a $3.7 million federal grant, reconstruction of 4th East near the elementary school, signal changes at Oneida and State Street, and development of a supplementary water source.
The mayor's address was provided to councilmembers as part of the meeting packet. These projects represent the administration's capital priorities for the coming year and will inform upcoming budget and construction schedules.
