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
Our annual street improvements project is getting ready for bid. You can see our planned street projects for this year and our tentative plan for the following 3 years. 2019-2022 Street Rehab WATERLINE PROJECT. City forces will be replacing three waterlines this year. One will be on Euclid Street from Laurel St to Tiffin St, another will be on Park St from Pearl St to Emerald St and the third will be on Dale Ave from Pearl St to Maple St. 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 end and replacing the stairs on the south end. Lights will be added near these stairs and at the edge of the parking lots. 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. |
