Alterations Planned At City Hall Property

Nelsonville plans extensive grounds and building changes around City Hall including moving a water division storage shed near the water pumping station and loading it on a low boy. The street department tracks will move to a garage near the former city light plant, a rear fire quarters room becomes a meeting space for a new volunteer fire force, and the rear lot will be blacktopped to provide ample parking. The side entrance will allow police to load prisoners at the jail rear, a long-sought change.
