Throughout the City of Clinton, workers have been tirelessly working to dig lines for coming broadband service providers.

The work has caused a stir already with numerous gas lines being struck causing issues with residents in those impacted areas. Clinton City Council members discussed the issue Tuesday night at the Clinton City Council meeting. Commissioner of Public Property John Wise said City crews were doing their best to mark out water lines but storms have slowed that work and the companies doing the work need to respect the fact storm cleanup efforts will take priority.

Commissioner Wise says with a fourth company coming to work in the City, it is going to be even more difficult to keep up with the demands of the companies. Additionally, Commissioner Tom Edmunds suggested if a storm rolls through, those folks are simply going to have to wait for cleanup efforts to finish.

Commissioner Ballenger was upset that work being done on the square was not being left the way those workers found it and feels that needs to be addressed.

Later this week on Regional Radio, we'll have more coverage from the Tuesday night City Council meeting including Commissioner Wise addressing things that need to be updated like finally getting around to air BnB ordinances and updating the City code book.

Additionally, Clinton Police Chief Ben Lowers spoke about the Illinois Supreme Court's decision to uphold the 'Safe-T Act' Tuesday morning.
