Tuesday Oct 26 Council Meeting

Had a council meeting tonite after a one day delay due to quorum issues on Monday.

Stuff from the meeting and other tidbits...
Power outage today on the east side of town, west side only had flickers. Was caused by tree branches in the big winds of the day.
Sounds like Arthur and Bryan streets will have the concrete poured on Thursday and/or Friday. Folks on Industrial, Bryan, Arthur, and Logan, if you can get your cars off the streets, that will help. There will be a lot of cement trucks going by.
Sewer televising and smoking is done. There is damage on the sewer line on the first block of Logan. Will likely be dug up, but will be done after Bryan is open, to provide another outlet.
We approved the sale of land in the Britson Park area to some neighbors. Not a done deal yet, but will get us some seed money to get the park going if all the legal stuff goes thru.
We have an offer to buy or rent the old library business for a new business. We are still working with the potential tenant/owner to see if we can make that happen.
We accepted the resignation of city council member Erin Varley. He is not leaving town yet, but he needs to start working on his move, so he has resigned. The current council will be talking to those showing an interest in being appointed to fill out Erin's term. If you are interested, let me, a council member, or Deneen at City Hall know of your interest.
