Lovington Village Board met in May with new president Roger Walker presiding and newly elected trustees Pam Anklam, Doug Smith and Dennis Garmon.

Walker reported drainage issues are improving and recommended the village complete the High Street project.

A bid of $2542 from Heppe Construction including cutting and replacing road and sidewalk access was presented. The board voted unanimously to complete the project and accepted an offer from David Bowers of the drainage district to pay half the city cost for completing the project.

Heppe Construction was also approved to replace a curb on High Street for $800, a sidewalk at the park for $620 and the sidewalk from the village shed on County Street west on State to the Church of God or Washington Street. Heppe’s $4500 bid on this project is eligible from Motor Fuel Tax funds.     Login or Subscribe to read the rest of this story.
