The matter of removing fluoride from city drinking water was before councilors in a public hearing Tuesday, revisiting an issue that Oroville citizens once fought hard to support for in the 1950s.
Among several items, the Oroville City Council approved up to $7.25 million Tuesday for a bid to construct sidewalks and bicycle improvements this year along Highway 162 from the Feather River to Foothill Boulevard.
As 12 rent regulated projects with 882 units have come online in Oroville in the past five years, a proposal for another affordable housing development in Oroville sparked comments by city councilors Tuesday of the future of the city’s housing needs for all income levels.
