Hubbard downtown revitalization nears completion
HUBBARD — Revitalization projects for the downtown area are near completion with city officials, business owners and residents smiling at the outcome.
The city now has a new safety center for police personnel, an upgraded utility complex on North Main Street and an upgraded water department. Both sides of North Main Street are lined with decorative red bricks along the sidewalk with vintage-style lampposts. Mayor Arthur Magee said none of the upgrades would have been possible without the blessing of city residents.
“None of this happens if the income tax increase did not pass,” the mayor said.
Now, Magee said residents call city hall to express how pleased they are with the upgrades, especially the improved sidewalks on North Main Street. He said the upgrades have been a bonus to the downtown area.
