Many agenda items at the Dec. 1 Ripley City Council meeting required the input and expertise of city treasurer, Tom Armstead.
Council members Carolyn Waybright, Rick Buckley, Danny Martin, and Recorder David Casto, with John McGinley unable to attend, approved Armstead’s proposal to refinance the sewer bonds through the United States Department of Agriculture.
