The City of Chadron is closing the access to the city dams at different times of the day for the next several weeks for much needed maintenance work.
      City Manager Tom Menke says because the maintenance work will affect all areas around the dams and ponds at one time or another, halting public access is the smartest safety move.Â
As for the work itself, Menke emphasizes that none of it is of an emergency nature or involves any kind of a threat to the integrity of the dams anytime in the foreseeable future.
Menke says he and the city apologize to the public for any inconveniences that may be caused by the upcoming closures the city dams area – and he adds that anyone with questions can just call him at city hall (308-430-5565)
