The St Francisville City Council met Wednesday evening at City Hall and approved a new fiscal year budget. The $2.47 million spending plan is an increase from the previous years due to increased costs from water well repairs and the new bridge construction project. Mayor Mark Boren reported to the council that the new bridge project is currently a a standstill due to the high level of the Wabash River. Some pier preparation work was done at the site. Project engineers estimate the work to be about 35% completed on the over $11 million project. The Illinois Enviornmental Protection Agency (IEPA) will be visiting the city in the future for inspections of the water plant, wells and tower. In preparation, the council approved $6000 for system chlorine pump upgrades and $10,000 for system computer upgrades. They also approved electrical service upgrade work at the new City Hall location downtown.
