HANCEVILLE — With the spring paving season just around the corner, Hanceville’s leaders are targeting a handful of problem areas for resurfacing work throughout the city.

At its regular meeting Thursday, the council awarded two bids for leveling and resurfacing work to be done at three separate locations, including a 1,500-foot section of Helen Warren Vogel Street, a 1,400-foot stretch along McNutt Drive, and a 700-foot portion of Whaley Avenue.

All three street sections will be resurfaced with asphalt. The council awarded the asphalt bid to C.A. Langford Co. of Guntersville, and the leveling bid to Johns Paving of Holly Pond.

The asphalt work will cost the city $56 per ton, with an estimated total project cost of $53,200. The leveling work will cost $30.75 per ton, with trucking, with a total project cost of $29,525.

In other business, the council:
