City Council Approves Revised Ordinances

Much to the disapproval of a full City Council Chambers on Tuesday night, the Clinton City Council approved ordinance revisions to clean up the City of Clinton.

 

Nearly 25 minutes of public participation were largely slanted against the revised ordinances. While wanting revisions to some of the things in the ordinances, Commissioner Dan Ballenger wanted to get the ordinance changes moving forward and come back later and change parts of them that need to be changed.

 
 
 

City Attorney John Hoblit explained to a grumbling crowd that most cities pass their ordinance revisions and then come back and clean them up.

 
 
 

The Council approved the revisions by a unanimous vote, and many displeased residents promptly left the Council chambers.

 
 
 

Also at the Tuesday night Clinton City Council meeting, it was approved to keep the name of Kiwanis Park in place, but to name the coming playground equipment after the late Police Chief Mike Reidy.
