(KLZA)-- Pawnee City Council members tabled the appointment of a new Council member during their October 15th meeting.
Mayor Deb Klein did not make a recommendation to fill the vacancy on the Council. A recommendation and vote by the Council is expected during the October 28th meeting.
A loan with a two-year payback was approved by the Council. The City agreed to loan the Pawnee City Assisted Living Board $80,108 allowing them to make their loan payment to the USDA. The PCAL hopes that when the new facility gains more residents, they will be able to make their own payments and pay the City back.
Following a public hearing, Council members approved a $20-thousand loan, from Community Development Block Grant, Reuse funds, to Sterup Enterprises to assist them with the purchase of the Pawnee Republican Newspaper. John Sterup will use the money to help purchase the equipment and working capital of the paper.
