City Councillors cracking down on street light outages 2013-07-02 - N Reed Street, Columbia, KY - Photo By Ed Waggener. Councillors Charles Grimsley and Dr. Ronald P. Rogers are cracking down on burned out street lights. Over the past month, they rode the streets in the evening and found that 31 of the city's street lights were doing their jobs. The surveillance takes 6 hours Councillor Grimsley said; or 12 man hours when a two person team does the job. They're calling on Citizens to help with the task, as well as City Gas, Police, Sanitation Department members, staff at City Hall, and other Council Members. Bad street lights should be reported, with the Number on the Pole (Above, B-3, Reed Street) along with the street location. Call City Hall at 270-384-2501; or Mr. Grimsley at 270-384-5658; or Dr. Rogers, or any Council Member. The City is paying for the same service whether the lights are working or not, Councillor Grimsley says. Read More... | Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.

At City Council meeting: Councillor Robert Flowers 2013-07-02 - City Hall, 116 Campbellsville Street, Columbia, KY - Photo by Robert Flowers. Robert Flowers was in a happy mood before the Monday, July 1, 2013, regular session of Columbia City Council, especially about the state of the city after the council made some hard decisions on the budget and adjusted rates for the city sanitation department and enhanced revenues for the gas department. Later in the meeting, he would take on a challenge to the gas ordinance, explaining to Citizen Bill Anderson that the changes were necesary to keep the department solvent in the face of rising pipeline transportation costs. He also challenged the Mayor, Acting City Clerk, and fellow council members to revisit the city's tax code, to find out how the City of Greensburg and the City of Campbellsville fared after the implementation of a Payroll Tax. Behind him, from front are Council Members Linda Waggener and Craig Dean, then City Attorney Marshall Loy. - EW Read More... | Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.
