A motion to impose a 2 mil emergency levy to help pay the expenses of recent flooding along Flower Creek failed at Monday's City Council meeting.
The 2 mil levy would have only raised about $6000, but opened the door for the City to ask the State to pay the remaining costs of dealing with the flood.
The City must now find a way to fund those costs without the additional tax on City residents. _______________________________________________
