City Council has a busy night
February 8th, 2011 | 
Author: The Lancaster city council discussed a bunch of different things last night, including:
- Chief Allen Weston’s plans to add three part-time officers while cutting back on overtime costs
- Donald Aldridge’s request to modify a school water bill that was thousands of dollars more expensive than usual because of a leak that drained more than 700,000 gallons
- A vet who wants to use the old hospital emergency room in city hall for a monthly spay/neuter clinic because the animal shelter doesn’t have space and he doesn’t work with the humane society anymore
- The need to complete installation of a pair of lagoons at the water plant to solve an EPA violation by December of this year
- The need to replace or upgrade a sand filter at the sewage plant that’s backing up the system
Stories on all these things are coming down the pipe soon, with a story about Weston’s policies and plans landing in today’s paper.

In regards to leak at new high school. I think the contractor and/or plumber should pay for water bill. It’s a new building. Is this a result of faultly workmanship? New buildings should not leak if build right in the first place.
Praise to Mayor Brenda Powers for the excellent work she is doing. Snow removal on city streets has been startede-first time in 4 years.
Also Chief Allen Weston doing a greeat job. I hope the City Council sees his decication and makes him Full time Chief of Lancaster. Also seem much improvement in the visualcity law enforcement since Allen took over.
