Mayor Ann Diercks extended a formal thank you to The Byron Lions Club for their donation to The Byron First Responders Unit. “It’s pretty awesome of them to put together such a nice donation,” announced Diercks at the Byron City Council meeting. The responders units each have a medical director and are staffed by emergency medical technicians to serve the public.

After a lengthy discussion from local residents, developers and the Byron City Council, a motion was unanimously approved to grant the Brook Lawn Tenth Subdivision plans. The approval is contingent on new ponds being paid for by the future developer among several other construction details. Homeowners in the area expressed concerns regarding water drainage issues, home construction and road development in the subdivision.

Larry Brooks of Brooks Builders assured nearby residents and council members stating, “This is Brook Lawn Ten; that means I’ve done nine others. I have done over sixty-five homes prior to these. Are there any issues or problems that I haven’t taken care of?” Lawn grading levels and drainage of the existing properties as well as maintenance of the current pond in the neighboring Wynnsong Second Subdivision are scheduled to be researched over the next several months.

Deputy Wood reported, “There are still ongoing problems with vandals at Valleyview Park in town. There is one paticular youth who has made a great effort to clean up the park as much as possible to keep it nice for everyone. We appreciate the hard work in cleaning it up and we are keeping a close watch on the area.” Residents are asked to call Law Enforcement if they witness any vandalism.
