Civil War Land Bids

Quoted from the March 4, 2013 Council Meeting Minutes:

"At this appointed time the hay bids for the airport and Civil War Site were presented for

the following years 2013 thru 2017. 

     Beringer Farms for the Airport Hay land of 20 acres more or less: $800.00 per year.

     Beringer Farms for the Civil War site of 40 acres more or less: $1600.00 per year.

Motion by Bausch, Larson seconded to accept these bids, motion carried.

The civil war Association sent a note to the Mayor that the Association has been trying to

purchase items for the cannon and they requested funds from the Civil war site hay bids.

Moved by Nagel, seconded by VanBockel to table this request and to invite Bert VanEssen

to the next meeting to discuss this further."

Street Projects:

City of Gettysburg City Maintenance is working on updating most of the streets in Gettysburg.  The map is color-coded to show which roads will be worked on which year.  This project is believed to go all the way until 2018.

 

The streets are being re-paved and sealed to protect from water damage.
