Governor stops in; council meets Tuesday

Gov. Beshear talks with guardsmen at the
bottled water distribution center.

Marion City Council will begin the process of replacing Councilwoman Phyllis Sykes, who died unexpectedly last week. The council meets at 5pm Tuesday at city hall with that matter on the agenda as well as an update of various aspects of the ongoing water crisis.

Gov. Andy Beshear was in town this morning. He visited the former armory where bottled water is being given away and talked with local leaders about the response to the water crisis.

The Crittenden Press will have complete details of his visit and all of the latest news on the water crisis in this week's full edition, which will be on newsstands Wednesday.
