The Chester City Council meeting on November 12, 2026, included approval of Resolution 140 for a grant-funded Central Business District redevelopment and implementation strategy. Council approved the services contract, not to exceed $20,000, with a $22,000 grant from the Delaware County Interactive Gaming Revenue Authority covering up to $2,000 in participant-related incidentals; the resolution passed unanimously. The strategy will focus on the area around the Overtime site and consider connections to the train and bus stations. During public comment, officials also noted that an engineering request for proposals had been issued for work related to the Lloyd Street Bridge, though no award or contract amount was discussed. The Chester Upland School District separately presented plans for an athletic complex reconstruction and expansion, including a new field, turf, stands, concessions, restrooms, tennis courts, lighting, and an eight-lane track; no procurement action or budget was identified for that project.
