Supervisors Asked to Offer Site for Memorial Building
At the regular meeting of the Anricah Legion post of Atlantic a committee asked the county board to let the south west corner of the courthouse grounds between Seventh and Eighth and Chestnut and Poplar streets host the Billy Williams Legion Memorial Building. The board postponed action until the next meeting as the Legion has sought the site for over a year. The proposal aims to serve countywide veterans with a large auditorium and pool. The board set June as the date for objections to acceptance of Briggs & Drew contractors for drainage work and approved partial payment to county vendors.
