Discussion Items
Old City Hall Building
Mayor Good brought to attention the Deed from 1958 for the Old City Hall on Virginia Street.
City Council Members and Mayor Good discussed the options for this building. The Mayor will
proceed with getting a couple quotes/inspections done to see whether renting or selling is the best
option. They also spoke about one option being that the building might need to be rezoned. Foster
pointed out for confirmation that if the City were to sell the building that the money would be put
in the General Fund to go towards specific expenses, like maybe the City Hall, but would not be
used on just anything, like roads and streets.
Action Items
Bench in Front of City Hall
Micki Eby with The Adams County Historical Society said they would like to donate a bench for
outside the New City Hall building and would like it to be a Memorial for Will Kirby. This was
approved by all City Council Members with many thank you from Mayor Good and the City
Council.
