Many Items Discussed at Owen City Council Meeting

Thursday, August 22nd, 2013 -- 8:16 AM

-Many items were discussed at the Owen City Council Meeting on Tuesday of last week.

The council is considering repealing and replacing a sound ordinance with new Ordinance Sec. 11-2-7 regarding Noise Limitations and Noise Pollution Prevention. The council approved the purchase of a sound level meter and tabled the issue.

The council voted to table a request from resident Curtiss Deering. Deering requested permission to set up his food stand ?Bratwurst Chalet? periodically in the Mill Pond Park.

CDA Director Tim Swiggum reported on several things taking shape in the Owen Community. The Family Dollar project is looking for a new site in Owen. They have been talking to the owner of a house and lot just west of the OW High School.

The free movie night on Thursdays has been well attended and Time Federal will be moving into their new location next week Friday.

Tim also reported that the railroad responded that it will be 30 days in order for them to have all the paperwork ready and the OMI building was vandalized. The bowling alley building is going to be leased to a canned and dry goods business as well.

Finally, Tim mentioned that the Indian Summer Fest will be held September 7th including a ?battle of the bands? event that has gained a lot of attention and participants, the dime store is working on siding and painting and Karen Swiggum?s new business is moving in this week.
