Franklin Faces Flood Levee Plan and Sixth Street Rail Fix
City Manager Bernard Eichholz outlines two Franklin projects, a levee for the Miami River flood plain to open farmland for industry and a Sixth Street rail alignment fix with Ohio 123. A 600000 dollar levee would shield Mackinaw Subdivision, with developers funding the project alongside Miami Conservancy District officials at tonight’s 7:30 meeting. A rezoning hearing for the Burdge farm near the flood plain is also on the agenda with a plan to keep only 10 of 80 acres for heavy industry.
