Bus dilemma faces council in Dixon over Greyhound loading
Dixon City Council will decide a permanent Greyhound bus loading site tonight at 7:30 in city hall. Current unloading on Hennepin Avenue near Commercial Alley overlaps downtown parking. Brantleys want Commercial Alley use and pledge to improve rear property, while McClains cite $2000 to $4000 needed for alley changes and potential business expansion. Greyhound says not leaving Dixon. petitions with about 700 names support retaining the current location. Other actions include adopting the tax levy and appropriations, with a $1,541,830 tax extension and a corporate expenditures figure just over $2.5 million. Architect McLane will present parking deck plans for the USF&G building at 7 p.m. and a precast concrete contract for the garage will be filed.
