COUNCIL DELAYS DECISION ON PARK BOND ISSUANCE

(Richmond, IN)--Richmond Common Council met Monday night and had a lengthy discussion about a resolution and an ordinance involving a proposed bond issuance for the Parks Department.  Public comment was taken both for and against a bond issuance.  After hearing that, Council decided to hold off on making a decision.  Council President Justin Burkhardt talked about why.  "To have some more discussion, ask some questions, and make sure that everyone has a presence to get those questions answered," Burkhardt said.  Council will take a vote either at its next meeting or the one that follows.
