Every color, texture, transition has purpose and meets a need of developing a beautiful, inclusive sensory play area for all children.” Another exciting development within the park is the construction of a new Event Center. “We are already receiving many calls inquiring about rentals on the new Event Center. It is nestled in the heart of the beautiful rolling hills of Mahr Park with incredible 14-foot tall, glass roll-up doors to have the option to bring nature into the venue. It is going to be a wonderful asset for our community.” From a fire safety perspective, the City of Madisonville is also a secure place to fight fires, thanks to its four fully-staffed fire stations. “We have an ISO rating of two,” says Cotton. “Number one is the lowest that you can get. Because of this low rating, residents of Madisonville pay lower insurance premiums than those living in surrounding communities.” Madisonville also provides all its utilities and even provides water and sewer services to surrounding communities. “We’re wrapping up our engineering for a major sewer project,” he adds. “The project is coming in roughly around $9 million for an interceptor sewer that will allow for more growth, not just within our City, but the county, as well.” The City’s Public Works Department also runs a recycling program that offers curbside collection. “We have a transfer station that was put into play - something that our City Administrator, Robert Janes, was working on as he entered into the office,” Cotton continues. “That project is now finalized. What that transfer station allows us to do is reduce our carbon footprint to the landfill. We’re saving close to $200,000 per year.” With a population nearing 20,000, the City www.meuthconcrete.com MADISONVILLE, KENTUCKY (270) 821-0800 Where Quality Paves The Way Looking for a ready-mix concrete supplier or concrete delivery service in the Madisonville, KY area?
