Mr. Doty asked if Midway Supply and NASCO were involved in that bond sale. Administrator Achen replied that they were not. Neil Loeding, 5046 Longview Drive asked if the $1.4 million bond issue was an indus- trial revenue bond. Administrator Achen replied that it was not, that it is a general obligation bond. Mr. Loeding stated that two months ago he had submitted a list of corrections he wanted made to City Council minutes and asked if they had been made. He also presented the Council with copies of the corrections he wanted made. Acting Mayor Hodges stated that the issue would be discussed later in the meeting as they were running behind for the scheduled public hearing.

MIDWAY INDUSTRIAL PRELIMINARY PLAT Mr. Steinmueller, of Midway Industrial Supply, explained that he would like to subdivide 3.53 acres of land into two parcels, one for Midway Industrial and the other for NASCO.
