ABOUTThe Public Works Department is responsible for the management of the City's infrastructure system, which includes streets, sanitary and storm sewers, water lines and traffic signals.
We provide engineering services and contract administration for capital improvements, infrastructure replacement and maintenance. The department also reviews and approves subdivisions and maintains records for all infrastructures. NEWSSTREET IMPROVEMENTS
We have two street improvement projects that will be bid out in March. Construction on one of those projects will not be able to be started until mid July due to Issue 1 funding of that project. You can see our planned street projects for this year and our tentative plan for the following 3 years. 2019-2022 Street Rehab 2020 STREET IMPROVEMENTS - OPWC Estimate: $268,000 Opens: March 24, 2020 1pm Advertisement - Bid Tab 2020 STREET IMPROVEMENTS Estimate: $156,000 Opens: March 24, 2020 1pm Advertisement - Bid Tab WATERLINE PROJECT.

RESERVOIR RECREATIONAL IMPROVEMENTS The City was awarded a grant administered by ODNR for $150,000 to do improvements to the Reservoir. We will be adding a set of stairs so that people can access the Reservoir on the north and west side and replacing the stairs on the south end. Improvements to the north parking lot will take place and stone will be added to the walking path around the top of the reservoir. The fishing docks will be improved and a new kayak launcher will be installed. A new building to house equipment and new picnic shelters will be built. There is even plans to add a binocular station along to the top bank. |
