Mount Vernon Set to Restore Water and Sewer to Most Operations
Mount Vernon City Council approved a multi step plan to restore water and sewer service to Mount Vernon Steel and Wire except the plating operation. The firm must install a discharge tank and mixing device and hire San Labs to test zinc content before any further discharge. Testing could take three weeks with risk of future shutdown if zinc exceeds limits.

Sale of former fire station delayed by rezoning petition
Five bids were received for the vacant fire station at 2247 Williams Blvd SW. The council tabled action after a petition urged rezoning to commercial use, with bids contingent on that change. Public Safety Commissioner Jaeger supported accepting the highest residential bid by Steve Shifflett at 15,500, while Jerry Keeney offered 22,615 if rezoned for commercial use to sell cars.
