                A city-wide spring cleanup was also announced by Public Works Director Gerald Burgy. Cleanup for the west end of town will be on April 27 and east end cleanup will take place a week later on May 4.  

                Funds for a new projector and screen for the conference room at the Little Creek Clubhouse were also approved.

                Council went into recess until April 16 to vote again on the budget and lay the levy. Two-thirds of the city council must vote for the budget for it to achieve final approval.
