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.
