Craig Allebach, town coordinator, said the sidewalk will extend along the new Heritage Trail north from Beta Hall back along the crosswalk on Pierceton Road.
The council approved a $169,977 contract with Phend & Brown for the sidewalk. Robert Swanson, councilman, made the motion to accept the bid, seconded by Councilman Denny Duncan.
In other business, the council also approved a $75,382 bid with Phend & Brown for reconstruction of Sandra Lane.
“There have been problems with water collecting and the street deteriorating,” Larry Long, town engineer, said.
He said 250 feet of pavement will be replaced, and new curbs and gutters will be installed.
Rick Swaim, councilman, said he has lived by Sandra Lane for the past 20 years and is glad to see the problem being fixed.
Long provided an update on the Muirfield Subdivision street reconstruction project. He said the project is 75 percent complete, and the storm drains and curb and gutters have been installed. The road will be paved Thursday.
Also during the meeting, the council approved submitting its proposed 2017 budget to Gateway. The budget shows an increase of 3 percent over the 2016 budget.
The council approved an ordinance for building codes and a resolution to reduce the 2016 general fund by $43,800 so that money will not be spent this year.
Tom Miller, street superintendent, said the public works building has been painted and smoke testing was done on Wooster Road.
