-The Owen City Council approved reporting some stolen items to the Clark County Sheriff’s Department at their meeting last week.The council approved reporting stolen meter test cards to the Clark County Sherriff’s Department as recommended by the county. They also approved the Finder’s Creepers the use of Crowley Park for their Haunted Trail as long as it does not interfere with any late season campers. Finally, the council approved the sale of city land to the property owners along the west side of N Paul Avenue to square up their lots and the right of way ownership was granted to the parcel owners on the north side of Lehnen Street. The council also heard the CDC’s report. Tim Swiggum reported that Heartland is getting anxious to start work on their underground feed bunker site. As the site is on RR property and the city needs the land in their name for the DOT grant; Heartland is giving them money to buy the property.
The city is waiting on the DNRs approval of the wetland delineation. The cement is in for the three big feed bins on the Heartland property, so they will be going up soon. The many city real estate sales can now be completed. The DRC is putting final touches on the plans for Autumnfest on October 21st. The HOF has a greater number of kids this year for their afterschool program and more volunteers are needed.
