With the completion of asphalt street paving and cement work for new sidewalks along Third Street, the front entrance of Freeman’s City Hall is once again open & accessible to patrons.
On September 29, the east door of City Hall along Poplar Street was made available as a temporary entrance while reconstruction work was taking place directly in front of City Hall. The east entrance provided access to the administrative offices, the council room & police department. Neighboring CorTrust Bank served as an additional collection point for bill payments to the City of Freeman while the 24/7 drop box at City Hall was inaccessible.
The removal of street barricades at Main Street intersections on November 9 - for the most part - marks the completion of a multi-million dollar project that began closing off portions of streets on April 27.
Street lights for the business district are on back order & not anticipated to be installed until later, with availability currently projected to be at some point in the month of June.. In the meantime, temporary lighting is in place.
