Serving Proudly As The Voice Of Valley County Since 1913

City Council: In Brief

Adam Morehouse was approved as a hire for a vacant position in the city's street department at the March 21 meeting of the Glasgow City Council, marking a return to the crew after a stint with the Glasgow Police Department. Also approved for rehire was Robert Webber, who is returning to the GPD after a stint with the Billings Police Department.

Mayor Becky Erickson took the opportunity to thank City Clerk-Treasurer Stacy Amundson for preparing an environmental report which was sent to Montana's Community Development Block Grant Program. The city is hoping to receive funding for a proposed slush fund to cover costs for demolition and development of properties deemed abandoned or severely dilapidated. The council invites interested members of the public to attend a meeting to be held in conjunction with the housing board on March 28 at 5:30 p.m. in council chambers.

During department head reports, Chief of Police Bruce Barstad informed the council that the GPD has received a $5,000 donation from BNSF to pay for needed upgrades to the department's Tasers and related equipment.
