Good morning.The city of Olean is launching a major push for federal infrastructure funding to completely renovate its decaying police headquarters. Mayor Amy Sherburne and United States Representative Nick Langworthy held an official facility tour to address critical structural failures inside the municipal site, which has remained entirely untouched since its original construction in nineteen-fifty-nine. Langworthy confirmed he has secured dedicated community project funding to fully overhaul the building's outdated layouts, replace a failing roof, and establish modernized administrative booking and holding facilities to improve officer safety.Meanwhile, the local family of late e-bike rider Nick Meyer is continuing to offer a fifteen-thousand-dollar cash reward for information, actively disputing recent police findings that concluded Meyer's death was a solo accident. And final preparations are wrapped up as the highly anticipated Great Wellsville Balloon Rally officially launches its main festival weekend tonight in Allegany County.For more news, download the radioNOVO app. I’m Codi Gaboff, radioNOVO News.
