YORK, Neb. (AP) — Sharp-eyed motorists driving along Interstate 80 in eastern Nebraska might notice a new feature of York’s well-known water tower: workers repainting the balloon-shaped structure.
Workers from the J.R. Stelzer Company in Lincoln are updating the tower’s paint job and taking care of some maintenance and cleaning.
The workers will dangle from the sides of the tower on ropes to complete the job.
York will pay $988,332 for the work at the I-80 tower and a second one near the high school.
