Raritans face rent demand for community building use
The Raritans civic group in Lane must decide whether to pay rent to use the Pottawatomie Community Building after the township council demanded payment. A $1 per month option was offered, with a $50 figure previously discussed, and Richmond has offered free space. The issue follows a dispute over discrimination concerns and the group’s role with Pottawatomie Days.
