2. PROJECT UPDATES
• Police Station
The Police Station remains on schedule, with exterior sheathing and roof decking complete. The
vapor barrier application is next, while plumbers and electricians work on various components of
the building.
• Fire Station No. 1
Fire Station No. 1 is also on track, with the final slab for the equipment bays poured last week. The
metal building is expected to be delivered in mid-August. Materials are being mobilized at the site.
• Water Treatment Plant Generator Project:
The generator has been delivered to the site, with the connection to natural gas in progress.
• Wastewater Plant Improvement Project:
Multiple crews are actively working on site to keep the project on track for its revised completion
date of December 31, 2026. Once completed, the project will double the capacity of the
Wastewater Treatment Plant and has been strategically designed to allow for efficient future
expansion as the community continues to grow.
• Food Truck Park:
The design for the new food truck park is complete and will go out for bids soon. The park, to be
located on the vacant lot south of City Hall, will be known as “Coweta Commons,” with the food
truck area named “The Feedlot.”
• ODOT Downtown Highway 72 (Broadway) Reconstruction Project:
The ODOT Broadway reconstruction project, which was originally scheduled to begin this fall, has
been postponed to July 2028 due to the need for more extensive drainage improvements than
initially anticipated. ODOT is continuing to refine the project design and will be meeting with
several local businesses over the coming weeks to gather feedback on site-specific challenges and
access concerns. The project will include pavement rehabilitation as well as the reconstruction of
sidewalks and curb ramps on both sides of Broadway to ensure compliance with Americans with
Disabilities Act (ADA) standards. While ODOT will bear the cost burden of the project, the City
plans to budget for new streetlamps and other enhancements with next year's budget cycle.
• 121st Street Bridge Project:
We are continuing to coordinate with ONG on the relocation of a natural gas line needed to
accommodate the widening of the existing structure. However, one of the property owners with
whom we had previously negotiated the necessary right-of-way has requested additional terms
that the City is unable to accommodate at this time. We will continue working with the property
owner to address this unexpected challenge and pursue a fair and mutually acceptable resolution.
