Dan Held, Public Works Director wanted to inform the City Council of several things during this past week’s snow storm. He stated the week’s lake lease reads that the City of Carlinville is not responsible for plowing the lanes and that with the amount of snow we had they could not read the water meters so they will be estimated.
