Elizabethtown Mayor Jeff Gregory says the city has taken great strides in 2025.
“We’ll start with park improvements,” Gregory said. “I think everybody is going to notice some great improvements at American Legion Park and Freeman Lake Park, and then you go to stormwater and engineering, and the street improvements and the maintenance that we’re seeing all across the city. Then we go to the PD, the police department, the expansion that we’re seeing down there, because we’re hiring so many officers to keep our community safe that we’ve had to do some expanding in the building down there.”
Gregory says 2026 will see more expansions for city services.
“Fire Station No. Four is going to come online probably at the end of January of 2026, so we’re excited about that,” Gregory said. “Our public works phase three is going to be the last phase down there redoing the whole public works park and giving them some really, really good buildings to work out of.”
Gregory also said he is proud that the Elizabethtown City Council was able to lower the city’s real property tax rate, “trying to make it more affordable to live here in Elizabethtown, all while operating within an $130 million budget that also has a strong reserve.”
“We’re doing some good things in Elizabethtown that we’re really proud of, and we look to carry that momentum into 2026 where we have some really big capital projects coming,” Gregory said.
