City Council 3/11/13

Heads turned at the bi-monthly City Coucil meeting with disgruntled citizens, Mayor Steve Williams declaring a high school wrestling coach honorary mayor and honoring Marshall's own swimming and diving team.
As the meeting opened citizens of Huntington had a chance to let their voice be heard and raise awareness of any issues unbeknownst to the council. This included the questioning of an officer still on duty, parking signs disappearing in the West End of Huntington and an ex-council member who refuses to give up. Tom McCallister continues to attend city council meetings in hopes of making positive changes for the city of Huntington to this day.
Some of the issues brought to council by citizens were not able to be addressed as there was a different authority who could help with the problem.
In a scramble of events the agenda was altered to honor Marshall University's Swimming and Diving team. Seniors from Marshall's swimming and diving team came to represent the school.
Huntington High's Wrestling team was also honored but none received a higher honor than Coach Rob Archer. Mayer Steve Williams honored Coach Archer as honorary mayor March 11-15, 2013.
