Lincoln
Mayor Seth Goodman was the deciding factor approving retail sale of
recreational marijuana in the city of Lincoln starting in 2020. The
aldermanic vote was split four-four with Kevin Bateman, Sam Downs,
Ron Keller and Tracy Welch voting in favor of the motion to approve.
Those who voted in opposition of the motion were Jeff Hoinacki,
Kathy Horn, Steve Parrott and Kathryn Schmidt. The same four-four
split carried into the second motion on local sales tax to be
assessed. Again, Goodman delivered the deciding vote of 'yes' to tax
retail marijuana at three percent.
City Attorney John Hoblit told the council that the Monday night
decision was only the first step of the process. The resolution
passed Monday will be put into an ordinance and must also be passed
by the council.
LDN will have further details on the Monday night meeting later this
week.

This
past weekend was a time for greeting fall as the official day
quickly approaches. In addition to the traditional festivals we see
in Logan County this time of year, a new festival was brought to the
community.
This year Lincoln College is hosting a group of Chinese exchange
students. In their home country, the students would celebrate the
Mid-Autumn Festival. Friday evening those students hosted a
performance at the Johnston Center for Performing Arts. The
beautiful and fun performance offered attendees insight into a
culture and lifestyle practiced half-a-world away.
