Overlay on First Street Near Main and Cedar Planned
City public works director Andy Haney says overlay on First Street between Main and Cedar could start Monday depending on airport expansion work. Killough Construction, contractor on the street project, is also handling an asphalt job at Ottawa Airport this week. First Street will close during the work, with drivers urged to use other routes. Haney hopes a one day finish. Editor Jim Hitch asks Herald customers to use the alley off Second Street for parking, with options on the east side of the building or the north lot.
