FROM THE DESK OF THE CITY MANAGER

October 2024

RIVERFRONT UPGRADES …... Meetings are still ongoing with the Grant Team and Engineers for this upgrade. Bidding for this project should start in the Spring 2025 months, Construction hopefully will begin in the Summer 2025 months and all projects MUST be complete by 2026. This is a $9 Million Dollar Grant we are fortunate enough to have been a part of through the State of Ohio. This Grant was written specifically for the Riverfront and all monies from this grant MUST be utilized at the Riverfront. Our City Park is beautiful and this upgrade is only going to enhance the park.

THE CITY POOL…. GREAT NEWS!!!!! The filter room renovation is finally complete!! All testing is complete and the new system is running. Buckeye Aquatics has closed all of the new equipment for the Winter and will return in the Spring to get it up and running for Swimming Season!!

SPLASH PAD AND PICKLE BALL COURTS…... We are moving forward with these projects and are in talks with various Contractors and Engineers to determine the best path for the money that we have received from the State of Ohio Capital Budget Grants. We have also applied for a T-Mobile Grant to help off-set the cost over and above the Grants we received. We are also still accepting donations to help cover the cost of the project. We hope to have these projects complete for the 2025 Summer/Fall Season.

BELMONT SEWER PROJECT…Southern Ohio Trenching has completed this project. We would like to thank the residents in this area for their patience and cooperation while this work was being completed.

BLUE FOUNTAIN LIFT STATION…. This project has finally begun. Currently, the Contractor is installing the new Pumps and Bases. If all continues to proceed as planned, testing and start-up will be in two or three weeks.

GALLIPOLIS IN LIGHTS …... It’s that time of year again!!! The Christmas Season is upon us. The Gallipolis in Lights group has started the huge task of decorating to make our Park look beautiful for the Christmas Season. We are grateful and appreciate all the hard work they do to make our park shine for the Holidays!!
