Commission tackles garbage site, billing issue

Drivers along the frontage road in front of MEC and the state highway department building in Garrison will need to be pulling to a complete stop instead of slowing-and-going through yield signs in that area following the McLean County Commission’s decision to switch out the yield signs in that area for stop signs.
“They just burn through them,” said Highway Supt. Jim Grey, who recommended the change.
With little discussion, the commissioners at their Dec. 30 meeting unanimously approved changing the current yield signs along that frontage road to stop signs.
The commissioners had a relatively quick year-end meeting, opting to hold one final meeting in 2019 to ensure timely paying of several of the county’s bills.
