Monroe County's budget is nearly complete. Government operations once again dominated discussion at Monday's County Board meeting, while public comment produced a different take.
In Madison County, the Zoning Board of Appeals unanimously approved two variances near Troy, the first step in a three-part process. One would let Shawn and Kayla Hartmann build a private lake, 93 by 96 feet, 225 feet from the nearest neighboring dwelling instead of the required 250. The full county board is set to give final approval Wed., Nov. 18.
Same day, if you'd rather eat: Taste of SIBR runs 5 to 7:30 p.m. at the Madison County Firemen's Hall, 9510 Collinsville Road, in Collinsville.
