Bellwood Police Department

Bellwood Police Department, located at 516 Main St in Bellwood, Pennsylvania, is a U.S. local government municipality registered in SAM.gov with a current registration valid through November 19, 2025. While primarily recognized as a police department, the entity is also operating under the business name "Maintanence Garage" and has been active in receiving federal grant sub-awards. Although the department does not currently hold federal contract vehicles, it has demonstrated capability in receiving federal grant sub-awards, specifically through partnerships with infrastructure and utility improvement initiatives.

The federal grant sub-awards received by Bellwood Police Department, all dated September 19, 2024, and issued through Pennvest, focus exclusively on critical water infrastructure improvement projects within Bellwood Borough and a portion of Antis Township. These grants are targeted at addressing significant water system infrastructure challenges, particularly the replacement of aging cast iron water distribution mains with leaded joints that pose potential health risks. The specific grant-funded projects include installing approximately 19,610 linear feet of 3" to 8" ductile iron water distribution main, associated valves, 21 fire hydrants, and service connections. The projects aim to mitigate potential lead contamination risks by replacing over 40 lead or galvanized water services and modernizing the water distribution system in response to anticipated changes in water treatment chemistry from the Altoona Water Authority.
