The dedication date for a new Veteran’s Memorial Wall in downtown Vandalia is Veteran’s Day.
At last Monday’s Vandalia City Council meeting, Mayor Rick Gottman told the Council they would need to perform leveling work on the lot at 5th and Gallatin Streets, where the Veteran’s Memorial Wall will be placed. Gottman presented the City Council with a bid from Arrow Valley Landscaping for $4,845.67. But, Alderman Bob Bowen questioned not going out for bids on the project.
There were 6 Aldermen on hand for the meeting and they tied 3 to 3 on the matter, with Aldermen Ken Hubler, Bret Brosman and Andy Lester voting yes and Bowen, Steve Barker and Russ Stunkel voting no. Mayor Gottman broke the tie by voting Yes to approve the project. Again, Mayor Gottman says the projected Dedication Date for the new Veteran’s Memorial Wall is Veteran’s Day, November 11th.
