Parking Lot Hopes Fade For County's Employes
Logan county commissioners meet in the courthouse and decide no parking lot action will be taken between the courthouse and county jail due to limited space. City officials oppose using the site for a lot and suggest keeping it as an alley, while other options include using the county garage or a new first floor courthouse water cooler. Unrelated items include a 30 day relief office leave, various bills, a sheep kill claim, a Rt 664 road improvement hearing, and hiring a bee inspector with capped expenses.
