(KLZA)-- Falls City Mayor Shawna Bindle recognized now retired Falls City Police Chief Duane Armbruster for his 39 years of service to the City as a police officer, including the last 8 years as Chief of Police during Wednesday evenings Council meeting.
Mayor Bindle also updated Council members on the search for a new City Administrator, noting that several interviews have been completed, second interviews have been scheduled with some candidates and that applications continue to come in.
The Council approved the recommendation from the Health Insurance Committee to continue the policy with Blue Cross and Blue Shield with no rate increase for the next year.
The recommendation from Mayor Bindle to appoint Michael Dougherty to a sergeant position with the Falls City Police Department was approved along with an ordinance to issue a combined utility revenue bond series in an amount not to exceed $555,035 for sewer system improvements that included a lift station.
The Council voted to waive the three-reading rule on the ordinance.
