The Erlanger City Council and Department of Public Works broke ground at the site of the city’s new public works facility at a ceremony on April 7.

The new facility will be located at 26 Montgomery Drive and will contain a 6,700-square-foot administration building, which is about double the size of the current building, according to Joe Daugherty, the project administrator for Erlanger Public Works.

The new complex will also contain a maintenance building measuring about 10,600 square feet, housing several maintenance trucks and a storage building for storing 1,500 tons of rock salt.

Daugherty estimates that construction of the facilities will take about year. For more information, contact Erlanger Public Works.
