BELLAIRE The village of Bellaire is another step closer to making an estimated $3 million worth of improvements at its water treatment plant.
During a regular meeting Thursday, Village Council approved an engineering contract with CTI Engineers of Akron, Ohio, for the job, which will involve the installation of two new air strippers at the plant. The village will pay $155,000 for its services.
Part of CTI’s job will be to help the village advertise for bids for the plant work, and then help administer the construction contract once it is awarded.
Also during the meeting, council heard presentations regarding new water meters from men representing two different companies Ray Schwarz, Ohio Sales manager for Neptune Equipment Co., Cincinnati, Ohio, and Curtis Straubhaar, meter specialist with Trumbull Industries, Akron, Ohio.
