Sorry Laurel, I mis-read the red bold face at the top of the blog heading and had assumed it was also referring to the cancelation of the City meeting where the cancelation was posted. Thanks for your interest in correcting me.

Well roj, I think the International Falls city council is doing just fine, so is the county and the company. The three C's are geting to work together for the betterment of our nice little community and working some issues out that might become reasonably effective in the next year for everyone that lives here. Its certainly okay to protect ones pocketbook and a partership is a good way to do that and make everyone feel that they are an "equal".

The FTZ might very well become a very major jobs and income producer for the area and at least more folks are considering the possibilities the FTZ could bring. I haven't many complaints even if I don't agree with all procedural methods someone else might choose to use to accomplish the result. Things are not actually going bad at all. It certainly is noted that about every office in the county and city are thinking out loud and thats very much appreciated and working quite well. Everyone should thank those elected in our local government whenever they find the opportunity to find a reason to do so.

I am sure the city attorney will ensure the local residents get "fair" value for "fair" value. Has anybody thought about a summer holiday like the old "Timbertennial" celebration we used to do. It might work with the "Bass Tournament" and both could compliment each other and bring each up a notch.

I would like the city and company to "consider" the option of another 332 access to Hwy 11 thru the old pulp storage area for our future access requirements. I still think a 1-1/2 mile space between access routes is a bit much for our needs in the future.

Anton, not sure what you are

Anton, not sure what you are referring to.
The Falls Council meeting went on as scheduled Monday, April 7.
A committee meeting of the Falls school board, scheduled for Monday, was canceled. I do not know if it has been rescheduled or will be included in the April 21 school board meeting agenda.

Anton, You need to stop

You need to stop scaring those young folks on the council, or they'll never hold another meeting!! LOL

Council Meeting Canceled--

Council Meeting Canceled-- Has anybody heard when the City Council meeting will be re-scheduled and/or if the agenda will be as was scheduled for last night? This would have been a "meaty" discussion with time for lots of public input on various topics. Public attendance would have been higher then usual for the last nights meeting.
