The Norman City Council received an update on several quality of life projects, storm damage and the outlook for construction this year amid rising costs for materials.
Ahead of future park improvement projects, residents will see construction begin on the proposed Senior Wellness Center and the Indoor Aquatics and Multi-Sport Center.
Financial Services Director Anthony Francisco said Tuesday night that the two projects are ânearing the starting line of dirt flying and construction starting.â
The senior center will be located at the southeast corner of N. Findlay Avenue and E. Rich Street, and is part of the voter-approved Norman Forward Sales Tax.

ELKINS The newest phase of the city of Elkins’ sewer separation project has gotten off to “a little bit of a rocky start,” a city official said.
In last week’s Elkins City Council meeting, Operations Manager Bob Pingley gave an update on the project, which got underway Feb. 1.
“Phase II of the sewer separation project … got off to a little bit of a rocky start,” Pingley said. “It’s a very deep trench, with very poor soil in South Elkins.
“We had some problems with close proximity to water lines. But I think we’ve worked through these problems, and now that the weather’s improving that’s going to help us too,” he said.
