The Marion City Council on Thursday appointed Gage Miskimen, a former reporter at The Gazette, to fill the vacancy left on city council when Colette Atkins, who had been on the council since 2018, resigned at the end of March.
The measure before the City Council would allow off-road utility terrain vehicles to be operated on city streets. The final vote on the matter is scheduled for next month.
The council looked at 3 options, but a slight majority favored Option B, which did not include the wave pool but left room in the plan for future expansion for one.
