			On  
			Tuesday evening, the Logan County Board held a special meeting to 
			discuss funding sources for needed repairs to the Logan County 
			Courthouse. The courthouse dome is in serious condition, leaks from 
			the roof have rendered portions of the courthouse unusable as a 
			result. The county must come up with a means of financing an 
			extensive restoration project to keep the courthouse. Board members 
			heard ideas on how to finance the project and made some significant 
			decisions that are spelled out in today's edition of Lincoln Daily 
			News.
