Bellbrook City Manager Melissa Dodd said city leaders attempted to apply for emergency funds from the Ohio Public Works Commission, however the emergency fund is empty until a new fiscal year begins July 1.

The city is having a meeting Friday morning to discuss options for repairs.  The city already has engineers coming to inspect the area this afternoon.
