Residents allege discrimination as city notes limited options after tax status dispute with Brown. Brown sought tax exempt parsonage status in 1996, with Herrin residence valued at $66,000 and annual taxes around $1,400 prior to removal from tax rolls.

Council Denies Sunday Bar Sales On permanent Basis
The council refused to grant a permanent Sunday sales basis for Shirk's and rejected weekly Sunday openings despite a rebound in traditional entertainment and larger crowds. Previous actions increased water rates for Ameren Energy Generating Co and Pinckneyville Correctional Center to bolster city coffers, with higher utility deposits for residents and a raised gas deposit. The speed limit on Illinois 154 was reduced from 40 to 30 mph after a state approval, and plans to annex nine acres along Illinois 154 for Contempri Industries model home sales centers were approved.
