Hitching rail could be installed in Killbuck By KELLEY MOHR Staff Writer Does Killbuck need a hitching rail? This is the question discussed by council recently in response to inquiries from community members. With more members of the Amish community moving to Killbuck or frequenting the area’s businesses, a hitching rail would serve a growing need. In response, Councilwoman
Lisa Kaufman posed the question to the Killbuck Savings Bank. “(The Killbuck Savings Bank) would be willing to give up the corner of its parking lot across from Burgett’s, as long as the village puts the rail in and keeps it cleaned up,” she said. “The bank is willing to donate the spot as long as we do the work and cleaned up after the horses.” The ground surrounding the
hitching post would have to be concrete, said Street Commissioner Brian Rippeth, as asphalt would quickly deteriorate from the use. Council decided to table the issue until discussing it with the Killbuck Community Improvement Corp. In other business, Killbuck soon will be getting many of its streets paved. Rippeth brought to council an estimate of $44,371 from Mel-
way Paving for paving North Main, Roosevelt and North Railroad streets. “We need to do North Main, North Railroad from Roosevelt to Main Street. The intersection will be done, so we should finish off Roosevelt, too,” said Rippeth. “It’s a disaster.” The paving, which will be completed in August or September, will fix the low spot on North Railroad and other problem areas.
While typically only $40,000 is designated for street repair and maintenance, Council transferred $5,000 into the fund to cover the additional costs. “It’s under $50,000 and (Melway Paving is) local,” said Rippeth. “Plus they do good work,” said Mayor Denny Hahn.
