SIDNEY A virtual tour of the city of Sidney’s 2021 capital projects was presented during the Sidney City Council workshop meeting Monday evening.
Council members viewed the city’s annual update on the improvement projects this year for the parks and recreation, fire and emergency services, streets and utilities departments, as well as the Sidney Airport/public transport.
Parks and Recreation Director Duane Gaier kicked off the tour with a PowerPoint on the improvements at the parks.
Seven light poles at Custenborder Field were identified as needing replaced. The cost to replace seven wood poles with seven new wood poles, Gaier said, is $86,085. The inspection cost of the poles in 2020 was $1,775.
