(Vicksburg Visit 9) Council Saving For New Village Hall

Courtesy Village of Vicksburg

In episode 9 of the Vicksburg Visit series, Village Council Pro Tem Carl Keller offers his viewpoint on the most significant village goals achieved in recent years. As well, he discusses his view on the next big goal: A new village hall.

In the rearview, Councilman Keller points to infrastructure and streetscape improvements in the village as the project of most significance. A low-interest, 40-year federal loan for $12 million actually saved the village $3 million in interest while allowing pressing infrastructure issues to be corrected – and an updated streetscape to be completed.

But, looking ahead, borrowing funds to construct the new village hall will not be the approach. Click to listen to Councilman Keller discuss the planning underway to fund that construction.
