Council Action

In other Council action, the council unanimously approved a beer license for the Chamber of Commerce to hold a "beer garden" at the Wheat Festival, approved easements for the Beaver Creek Sewer Line, approved an easement and contract with the Blackwell Northern Gateway Railroad to route a sewer line under the BNGR Railroad tracks, and approved a contract for use of the go-kart track at Worden Park for the upcoming season. I voted against the Worden Park contract as the revenues received from the races will go into the Worden Park Trust Fund as opposed to the General Fund. The General Fund budgets the vast majority of maintenance and expansion costs at Worden Park...I felt it only appropriate to reimburse the General Fund with the revenue money.
