(KLZA)-- The Humboldt City Council is going to review two bids received for armor coating during their May 2 meeting.

Bids were accepted for armor coating the roads in the Humboldt Lake Park and for 5th Street. 

Richardson County Third District Commissioner Terry Frank met with the Council to discuss ways to improve the Cemetery Road. Frank suggested the base of the gravel road would need to be repaired.  He said more rock will need to be added and suggested the road be graded weekly.  No decisions were made, but further discussion about the road will be taking place. 

The Council also received an update from Fire Chief Rex Kapel and Secretary/Treasurer Larry Stauffer. about the new fire hall at the former Humboldt Hospital site.  They estimated it will cost nearly $75-thousand to complete the work on the building to house the fire truck and other emergency equipment.

The Council did approve the newly elected Fire Department officers.  They include Kapel as Fire Chief, Rick Dettman as Assistant Chief, and Stauffer as Secretary-Treasurer.
