(KNZA)--Flags will be displayed around the Brown County courthouse square on certain holidays in the future.
The Brown County Commission on a 2-1 vote Monday approved having the Hiawatha Kiwanis Club install eight U.S. flags around the courthouse square on five holidays a year at a cost of $240 a year.
The Kiwanis will provide the flags, poles and ground sleeves.
The flags will be installed on Memorial Day, Flag Day, Independence Day, Labor Day and Veterans Day.
The project is a fund-raiser for the Kiwanis.
Commissioner Bill Pollock cast the lone dissenting vote.
