Dear Business Owners and Community Members,
The City of Pittsfield, in partnership with Rees Construction, invites you to attend a public meeting regarding the upcoming Downtown Revitalization Project.
The meeting will be held on Thursday, February 5, from 6:00 to 7:00 p.m. at City Hall, located at 215 N. Monroe Street, Pittsfield, IL 62363.
During this meeting, the construction team will provide an overview of the project and discuss the anticipated schedule for each phase of construction. They will also share details about the work planned during each phase so that business owners, residents, and visitors can better understand what to expect as improvements move forward.
This meeting is open to all residents and community members. There will be time for questions, and representatives from both the City of Pittsfield and Rees Construction will be available to address any concerns or provide additional information.
We encourage everyone, especially business owners on the square, to attend and be part of this important conversation as we work together to enhance our downtown area.
Thank you for your continued support and commitment to our community.

The Pike County Historical Society (PCHS) is a 501(c)(3) organization dedicated to protecting and sharing our local heritage. The Society owns and maintains several historic buildings, including the East School Museum, Shastid House, and the Higbee Memorial. PCHS is responsible for maintaining the exteriors of these buildings, while the individual museums housed within them operate under the Society’s umbrella with their own directors, boards, and finances.
All Wars and Military Heritage museums are also part of the Pike County Historical Society. While each museum has its own leadership and mission, they work together with a shared goal: preserving Pike County history for future generations. Many volunteers choose to support the museums that best align with their interests, and a few generously volunteer at more than one location.
The Society is powered almost entirely by volunteers — many of whom are in their 70s and 80s — who continue to give their time, knowledge, and energy to this important work. In 2025 alone, the museum received more than 70 artifact donations, ranging from single family heirlooms to large collections like hundreds of one-room school attendance books. Each donation is carefully cataloged, stored, and displayed with respect for the trust placed in the Society.
PCHS does not charge admission to any of its museums or programs because access to history should be available to everyone. The Society operates on donations, modest membership dues, book sales, and investment income, with the majority of expenses going toward insurance and basic maintenance.
From maintaining historic buildings, rotating exhibits, hosting open houses, managing collections, and coordinating volunteers, the Pike County Historical Society is a small but deeply committed group working every day to preserve our community’s story.
If you value local history, consider becoming a member, making a donation, or volunteering your time. Pike County’s history is worth preserving — and it takes all of us to keep it alive.

Some customers may receive multiple surveys; this will happen if there are multiple meters in their name. Please fill out a survey for each water service that you have and return it to City Hall by the end of January. If you have any questions, you may contact Terry Leahr our water plant operator, at 217-285-2031.
Thank you for your assistance with this project.
