A look back at last week's ribbon cutting for the new K-9 Ernie Memorial Dog Park at Hands Pike Park!

A major step forward for one of Covington’s most important transportation corridors.

The City of Covington has secured a $4.1 million federal grant to support roadway and pedestrian improvements along Winston Avenue/KY 16 in Latonia to make the corridor safer and more accessible for all.

This is a significant investment in Latonia’s infrastructure, but there’s more work ahead. The City will continue working with state and regional partners to secure additional funding and explore ways to accelerate improvements along the roadway.

🚒 You may see Covington Fire Department crews testing fire hydrants over the next 4–6 weeks!

The Department will be conducting flow tests on hydrants across the city to ensure firefighters have accurate information about how much water each hydrant can provide during an emergency.

Testing may temporarily cause water discoloration in nearby homes. This is a temporary side effect of the process.

We apologize for any inconvenience and appreciate your patience as our crews complete this important work to help keep Covington safe!

Nearly 90 years after passing away in the line of duty, Covington Firefighter Albert Krohman’s legacy of service is being honored among Kentucky’s fallen firefighters.

Krohman, who died in 1936 while serving the City, was recently added to the Kentucky Fallen Firefighters Memorial in Frankfort. The recognition was made possible thanks to his great-grandson sharing his story and a community determined to preserve his legacy.
