ANTHONY CITY HALL <br /> By: Michael Mornson, City Manager <br /> In 1996, the City probably had the biggest year in terms of projects and activities completed, <br /> i.e., construction on a CUB Food Store and the City Hall started; 120+ building permits were <br /> issued; Industrial Custom Products located to the American Monarch building; Chandler Place <br /> expanded; the Arbors and Nedegaard townhomes were constructed, etc., etc. <br /> I believe that projects and activities in 1998 will surpass 1996.
