Chillicothe City Council met for its regular bi-monthly session, Monday, passing two pieces of legislation after waiving the three-read rule.
The first item passed was a resolution on first read to allow The Buck Fifty to use a portion of Second Street for its fifth annual relay race on April 15 through April 17.
The second item passed was an ordinance on first read to appropriate $3,072,508.04 to continue handling brought-forward purchase orders from 2020 and other brought-forward amounts to be put on the books for the city for the year ending December 31, 2021.
"This is a regular process [for] things that are purchased at the end of the year," said Council member Dustin Proehl, of the Finance Committee. "The purchase orders move forward, and then we have to pay them."
