From the Mayor<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

By: Gary Griffith 740.768.2632<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hopefully everyone is enjoying the beautiful weather we\u2019ve been experiencing so far this summer. A big Thank You to Jeff Kemmer and Mark Clark for mowing the abandoned lots in the Village that were not getting taken care of. Thank You to all Village residents for showing pride in our Village and keeping your properties mowed and cleaned up. This means a lot to your neighbors and visitors to our Village.  As your Mayor, I love it when people come up and say how well the Village and its properties look compared to others!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Work has proceeded on the State Route 164 bridge project after a redesign of the structure and several problems have been worked out. The project with Columbia Gas, replacement of gas lines, is still scheduled for 2021. There have been questions concerning the bridge for getting materials into the Village, but we haven\u2019t heard of any changes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Village has been working with the Jefferson County Land Bank on cleaning up several properties in the Village. Once the list is finalized, everyone will be brought up to date as to the properties involved.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In closing, with the 4th of July coming up, be careful and show respect to others as far as your celebrations for the holiday. As always Thank You to the residents both past and present for making Bergholz the envy of the Valley!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mayor Gary Griffith<\/p>\n\n\n\n
