Ridge School demolition process underway

November 4, 2013

The city is moving forward with the demolition of Ridge School located on Ridge Street.

Municipal Administrator John Fawcett said the city acquired the property last week and is in the process of removing electric, water, sewer and gas meters for demolition.

The next step is bringing demolition experts and an asbestos specialist to inspect the building for a demolition proposal, he said.

The city intends to turn the Ridge School into a community park, as there is no other park in the First Ward.

Also at council:

-The community improvement committee announced plans to start a town gown committee looking at issues with students, residents, the city and the University.

-Michelle Grigore, parks and recreation director, announced that the BG city pool and water park won first place under the facility category by the Ohio Parks and Recreation Association, beating out cities like Cleveland and Cincinnati.
