Commissioner John Wise says rates will increase three-percent across the board as they City tries to gradually keep up with increasing costs on equipment and maintenance.

The Council also approved a summer concert series on the downtown Clinton Square. The first concert is set for June 11, though details are minimal at this time as the City awaits contract approval with targeted artists.

The Council approved a contracted for City trees with Jason's Lawn Service for just over $45-hundred.
