With an agenda that lacked legislation, Circleville Council worked on other issues Tuesday evening. One was whether to merge with the county's dispatching center, which has been an extended discussion.
.
Council president David Crawford explained that council established a committee of two to join the administration to talk things over with the county commissioners. He thinks it's a good next step after a year and a half.
.
Two council members will not be running for re-election, so next year's council will be less familiar with the issue - so Crawford said it would be good to finish by the end of the year.
.
The Committee of the whole also recommended to sell the Everts School gym wing to the Pickaway Progress Partnership for $100, which will then work it out with the current planners for the proposed cultural center.
.
And last session, council reconciled themselves over unexpected alterations to the safety forces levy, and gave it a five-year sunset clause before making sure it would be on the fall ballot.
