The city council met on Tuesday and accepted a bid to make improvements to N. Killough. The low bidder was Roland Leslie. The street will be made 6 feet wider. All of the width will be on the east side. This was done because the easement is more on the east side and the number of driveways to be replaced will be five and on the west side the number is 13.

This project will begin at Eldridge an go just past the First Assembly of God Church. These improvements will make the traffic flow on this street.

The city council also agreed to change the way we handle dogs that we pick up. We will build twenty new pens to hold our dogs. The Friends of Animals had been taking care of our dogs and we were paying them $1,000.00 a month. We will discontinue this contribution and use the money to build the new pens.

I went to Paragould yesterday to attend the AML executive committee meeting. We had a very good meeting and it was very long. I enjoyed visiting Paragould and seeing their community center complex.
