The Clinton City Council voted on several topics during its meeting Tuesday Night.

The proposal for the water plant and tower improvements was passed. City Administrator, Taylor Baxter, says this project has been a huge undertaking. They have used their ARPA funding, and now the city has approved $375,000 of additional funding for the project. That money will go towards the design, so they can be approved for an Illinois EPA loan. 

Baxter says there has been progress in the South Madison Street project, the motor fuel tax, or MFT, funds supplemental resolution for almost $15,000 was passed as well. 

There was also a win for the Clinton Police Department on Tuesday Night, the Council approved the purchase of two 2024 Ford Police Interceptor utility vehicles. It can be a tough process to make purchases like this happen.
