Council weighs spraying plan and tax impact at meeting
The council discussed funding for a city spraying program as gasoline tax revenue for street department use has fallen. A tax rate increase may follow budget time. Horace Irish asked to lease city land near the railroad to expand his welding business with future storage needs. A parking meter was approved for North Main Street and $5,000 moved from Light fund to Cash Reserve, with routine bill payments approved.
