After nearly two months of review, last night’s City Council meeting finally saw the adoption of a snow removal policy for the City of Newton — well before the first snow of the season.

While questions regarding parking tickets during the months from November to April, especially on the square, were discussed, the resolution adopting a city snow removal policy was adopted by a unanimous vote.  

In addition, a resolution accepting the purchase proposal of property in the 200 block of North Fifth Avenue West in Newton in the North Central Urban Renewal District was approved unanimously. Ohio-based Miller-Valentine Group sought the property to in order to build a 50-63 unit, middle-income senior housing facility.
