Seehafer News, 11/26/2024

Mayor Justin Nickels announced that once they hire a company, the goal is to begin work next month. 

This includes demolishing a remaining concrete slab, excavating PCB and VOC soils, and removing the utility tunnel below the surface. 

The money for the work comes from the city’s almost $2 million federal grant.
