______________________________________________________________________________ CITY OF TIFFIN CITY ADMINISTRATOR REPORT TO THE CITY COUNCIL November 1, 2024 • Rathje Construction is finishing up the last parts of Stage 1 of the Original Town Project. With the exception of a couple of sidewalk approaches, all the concrete work has been completed. LL Pelling completed the asphalt at the intersections of Summerhays Street and Highway 6 and East 3rd Street and Main Street. Pelling will be back in town around November 11th to put the second lift on all of 3rd Street and Summerhays Street. This will shut down the project until next spring. • Everything required to be submitted to the DOT for the North Park Road Improvements Project was submitted on Thursday. This solidifies the bid date for the project of December 17th. With the timing of that bid date being the same as a council meeting date, I don’t know if we will be able to award a bid at that meeting or if it will need to be at the first meeting in January of 2025. I will know more about that though as the date gets closer. • The Rectangular Rapid Flashing Beacons system designed for the roundabout at Park Road and Highway 6 is scheduled to be delivered by the end of this week. Advantage Traffic Control is planning on pouring the footings potentially on Friday or early next week so the system can be installed as soon as possible. • Just an FYI, the City’s Auditors will be here on Tuesday, November 19th and Wednesday, November 20th, to conduct the FY 2023-2024 audit. We continue to be very pleased with the partnership we have established with BerganKDV and look forward to working with them again this year. • Just a friendly reminder that City Hall will be closed on Monday, November 11th in observance of Veteran’s Day.
