Was It Loaded Council adjourns with no business amid absences
The city council met Monday night with two members absent and six voting to adjourn after approving the prior minutes. A motion to adjourn passed by six to two, amid protest from Strack and Stephens. The failure to act on the tax levy and appropriation ordinances will keep the $125 per $100 valuation levy in place next year. Traction ordinances were not considered and no definite rescheduled date was set, though a possible galled meeting may occur this month.
