City Council President Tony Dolce reads proclamation recognizing retiring DPW-Parks Director Jeff Lehman (March 27, 2023)<\/p><\/div>\n

Three grant allocations totaling $365,060 to Jamestown businesses have been approved by Jamestown City Council<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The three resolutions were approved by the Jamestown Local Development Corporation<\/strong> board at its March meeting, but each exceeded the $100,000 threshold, thus requiring council approval.<\/p>\n

Summit Wealth Management<\/strong>‘s request of $108,705 was amended through a motion by Council member Andrew Faulkner<\/strong> to $83,100.<\/p>\n

Faulkner said the amended amount is what was needed to finish the project, “They’ve already started it and been working on it. They recently purchased their building. They’re making their renovations to fit what they need, and the effects of COVID, what they needed. So, the form we got at the last work session, they had to break down all that and that will give them what they need to complete the project from here.”<\/p>\n

Council member at Large Jeff Russell<\/strong> said several council members did tour the businesses, “And business owners did show them around and basically show them their project that was going on. So, there were council members that did their due diligence when they were invited to check out the projects.”<\/p>\n

The allocation of $167,105 was approved for Panache<\/strong> and $114,855 was approved for Labyrinth Press Company<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

Council also recognized Department of Public Works<\/strong> Director and Acting Parks Department<\/strong> Director Jeff Lehman<\/strong> for his 29 years of service to the city. Lehman’s last day before retiring is Friday, March 31. He served on the Jamestown Board of Public Utilities<\/strong> and City Planning Commission<\/strong> during his tenure, which also included overseeing the creation of the Jamestown Riverwalk.<\/p>\n

Lehman is being succeeded by Acting DPW and Parks Director Mark Roetzer<\/strong>, who was sworn in at Monday night’s meeting for the temporary position while the city continues to looks for a full-time replacement.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
