Nelsonville weighs health area tieup with Athens County
Nelsonville City Council discussed joining the Athens County Public Health setup to provide nursing services locally. An ordinance to involve the mayor and safety director was deferred due to mayoral illness. Dr. H T Phillips of the county health department would be invited to explain progress at the next session. The county health department currently includes Athens City and most of Athens County but not Nelsonville. A special committee was named to study the proposal. Other actions included a prisoner feeding contract at 65 cents per day, shifting funds to cover deficiencies, and plans to study electric rates for about 15 commercial users amid rising costs. Improvements on Campbell and Walnut Streets and a Back Street sewer project were postponed until spring. Mayor Daugherty reported October fines and revenues totaling $1,251.20 with allocations to various funds.
