The Huntington City Council meeting of March 25 was filled with emotions.
Proud moments and heated ones compromised the 1 hour 20 minute meeting at City Hall.
The meeting began with the honoring of a Huntington High senior, Kelsi Burns, for her amazing academic achievement and her acceptance into West Point college. Mayor Williams said in honor of Burns Tuesday, March 26 would be Kelsi Burns Day in the city of Huntington.
As the general and wellness part of the meeting opened, ex-council member McCallister shared his concerns for the cleanliness of the city and the welfare of children when mosquitos return for the season. The administration said they would do their best.
Another concerned citizen brought up an idea for Cabell County's Most Wanted - an issue he had brought to a previous city council meeting - and how it would be a "useful tool" for the city of Huntington in catching fugitives.
The council approved the mayor's plan to contract with a cleaning company and clean up the community of Huntington, beginning in July. However, citizen McCallister felt the wrong parts of Huntington will be focused on, when the interstates running through Huntington are the real problem.
In the end of the meeting council members approved the building of a skateboard park near the Riverfront, though some council members had questions about the building in phases. Also the Second Chance Prom was promoted once again for anyone in the area.
