The Forest City Council will convene at 7 pm with a discussion on several issues before the city. The council will hold two public hearings on separate issues. The first is the sale of land by the city to a resident. The property is at 343 W. K Street and was originally the site of a house. The home was torn down and the property is too small to build on, so it must be sold to an adjoining neighbor.
The second issue is the Forest City Airport. The council and Mayor Byron Ruiter are working with the federal government to improve the taxiway lighting. The total cost of the project is estimated to be $197,700 of which the federal government will pay 90%. This leaves the city portion at $19,770. The city will open up the meeting to Forest City residents to offer their opinion on the project.
