Streets considered for improvements

After Chiefland City Engineer Lee Mills spent an hour telling the City Commission about roads that might be paved, City Manager Grady Hartzog Sr. listed four he saw as best candidates during the Feb. 25 commission meeting.

The four roads Hartzog listed are all the city can afford now, he said, but Finance and Projects Coordinator Laurie Copeland is working to obtain Community Development Block Grants. These CDBGs are for water, sewer, fire hydrants and some paving, she said.

The city has collected about $300,000 in franchise fees from Waste Pro. These funds can pay for city road paving. Approximately $40,000 of that money has been budgeted to pave part of Southwest Fourth Street, Southeast Fourth Street, Southeast Third Avenue and a street off of Buie Park Road, which might be known as Southeast Eighth Court.

City Commissioner Sammy Cason said he thinks it's Eighth. Mills said it is Eighth or Ninth, depending on who is asked.

Before Mills listed streets he had quickly reviewed for paving, he said some of the numbers are not confirmed. There are some issues with the exact numeric order of some streets in the city.
