director Dan Fulscher updated the county board on the construction
of the new 911 communications center at the Logan County Safety
Complex. Fulscher advised that the project is about 40 percent done,
with the goal of a fall completion, and invited board members to
stop by and inspect the progress.

At Tuesday night's voting session the Logan County Board awarded a
construction contract to Illinois Valley Paving in the amount of
$82,348.02 for work on the Emden spur overhead. At the June 14
workshop session, county board members learned that the Chuck
Holzwarth Flying Service, which provides crop dusting, seeding and
other agricultural services from the Logan County Airport, may be
expanding. Negotiations have begun to add to their building to meet
their growing needs, according to airport-farm chairman Bill Sahs.
Vickie Hasprey advised that there are quite a few delinquent
animal registrations, and Dr. Sanborn is formulating a plan to deal
with the animal owners involved. The board also passed approval of
contracts for seven area municipalities.

 The board was also advised that a new windmill ordinance is in
the works and should be ready by the next planning and zoning
meeting.
In other action, the board appointed Edward Allspach and Clifford
Sullivan to the Logan County Cemetery Maintenance District and
reappointed Derrick Crane to the Logan County Regional Planning
Commission. Also, Charles I. Begolka was appointed as a trustee of
the Atlanta Rural Fire Protection District.
