Sidney Council Considers Golf Expansion and Park Engine Plan
The Sidney city council approved sidewalk construction funded by property owners, shifted funds between paving districts, and set a Jan 28 meeting date. It endorsed a Land and Water Development Act expansion for 12 acres of golf course land and 16 acres at Lodgepole Creek, while authorizing sign purchase from Prison Industries as cheaper than in-house production. A request to acquire Union Pacific's last steam locomotive for Legion Park was raised, angled parking discussions continued with church members, and a reminder urged drivers to check vehicle lights regularly.
