Mount Morris may buy its own Freedom Bell marker
Mount Morris remains undecided after the Illinois Historical Society rejected the Let Freedom Ring Committee's marker application for the Freedom Bell. Trustee Joyce Carr said the village may purchase a marker itself, claiming markers are placed at sites with established events. The village had provided 175 for the marker but may hold funds until marker options and costs are explored. Carr also pushed to study a bed and breakfast ordinance before any future inquiries.
