Walnut Hills storefront contractors will be paid

Cincinnati City Council has passed unanimously an ordinance approving the payment of more than $30,000 to four contractors as a moral obligation for the stalled Walnut Hills Neighborhood Business District Storefront Improvement Project.

The four contractors, Dickey's Glass, Lee Stultz Electric, Fix All Remodeling, and B&B Aluminum-Vinyl, completed work as subcontractors to Victory Neighborhood Services as part of a $75,000 project to renovate up to 15 storefronts along E McMillan Avenue.

Victory went out of business prior to submitting a voucher to the City to collect payment for the work.

The City is working with the community to find a new contractor to complete the project.
