CADIZ The village of Cadiz has been awarded $616,402 in grant funding toward a sidewalk improvement project.
Cadiz Mayor John Migliore said the village secured the funds through the Ohio Department of Transportation’s Transportation Alternatives Program a program that provides funding for infrastructure improvement projects.
“I wanted to share some good news with the community. Last Friday I got word from OMEGA (Ohio Mid-Eastern Governments Association) that the TAP grant that we applied for last year has gone through,” he said during Thursday’s evening council meeting.
The funding will go toward a $733,190 sidewalk improvement project along portions of U.S. 250 and Ohio 9. The $116,730 balance will come from the village’s Tax Increment Financing, he said.

Beautiful, balmy blue skies lured residents and visitors to the Port Clinton beach last weekend, where they found new concrete walkways and user-friendly steps being put in place.
As usual, the Lake Erie Love sign in Waterworks Park was the place to stop for family photographs. City work crews had already made it more accommodating, with steps behind the sign making it easier to snap a photo or two.

Port Clinton has been a small city with big ideas of late, and many of those plans are coming to fruition. As the downtown area continues to evolve, with Madison Street retail renovations in the works and The Art Garage opening on West Perry Street, Port Clinton City Council has given the green light to the long-sought Waterfront Walkway on the east bank of the Portage River.
