City reports progress on riverfront project, water-line work and secures three Ohio EPA grants
Summary
City Manager John Westfall said Riverfront contractors are pouring concrete and working on ADA bank slope, while a water-line replacement contractor is active on Upper Route 7; the city also reported three Ohio EPA grants totaling $85,000 for a booster generator, water asset management, and well abandonment.
City Manager John Westfall updated the Commission that contractors at the Riverfront are "still pouring concrete" and hope to have the lower level finished in the next couple of weeks; crews are also working on the bank slope to provide ADA accessibility. He said the water-line replacement contractor is working on Upper Route 7 near Airport Road and will need to bore under the road where utilities are congested.
Westfall also reported securing three Ohio EPA grants: $50,000 for a booster station generator, $20,000 for a water asset management program, and $15,000 for well abandonment. He noted the city is managing an ordered salt resupply after recent cold weather and that crews responded to a contractor-hit water break on First Avenue, where the contractor remained until city workers completed repairs.
