Committee of the Whole - Oct 26 2026

About 2,500 feet of aging sewer lines along Columbia Street, Hamilton Road and Linda Road will be relined for $156,642 — well under the engineer's estimate. Less digging, longer-lasting pipes.

MeetingFeb 9, 2026approved

City Council - 2026-02-09

Hilliard operates 21 lift stations that are critical to public health — if one fails, sewage and stormwater systems are at risk. A 2025 master plan update prioritized fixes, and EMH&T was hired to design the work, funded through the five-year CIP.

MeetingFeb 2, 2026approved

City Council - 2026-02-02

The City is keeping EMH&T on retainer for stormwater work: EPA permit compliance, design fixes like erosion near Scioto Run, and smaller drainage studies. It's the behind-the-scenes work that keeps streams and basins functioning.
