Granite City Fresh Market Coming to Bellmore Village

The Granite City City Council meeting opened on November 4, at 7pm. The minutes from the previous meeting were passed unanimously. In presentation of communications, representatives from Bellmore Village gave a presentation on the planned renovations of the stores they purchased, one of which will be Granite City Fresh Market. The market will offer a deli counter and fresh high quality produce. In public correspondence Susie Rodgers spoke first, on the behalf of Heather Groetecke. She read a statement from Groetecke that revolved around the "No" result of the recent referendum asking whether residents were in favor of data centers. She praised the community for standing together, calling for transparency and resisting a data center. Jacob Sudabris spoke next echoing the same sentiment as Grotecke, that the residents resisting the data centers are valid in their criticisms of the board and their concerns are not unfounded. As proven by the recent ballot initiative, they are speaking for the majority. He hopes the board will hear that message and adapt. Leslie Budoris followed Jacob, also sharing the same message as the first two speakers. She does not want a data center at all, under any circumstance. James Bailey was the next

Blackburn Annexation Passes Maryville Village Board

The Maryville Village Board meeting opened at 6pm on November 4 with Trustee Rod Schmidt absent. The meeting began with public comments. Page Durham, a resident of Collinsville, was the first to speak, and she began by handing the board an informational flier. She came representing the Madison County Farm Bureau, a non profit representing 1,300 land owners and farmers within the county. Durham spoke on behalf of the annexation of the Regal property, which the Farm Bureau opposes for various reasons stated on her handout. The annexation itself is for the Blackburn Manor subdivision and the surrounding area. She acknowledged the annexation is working within state limits, but the bureau would like the board to adopt an agricultural zoning area for the property. Their intention is to keep farmland as farmland. Allowing the farmers to use that land as they always have. She then offered her services to the board and the staff in the creation of said agricultural zone. Dwayne Regal spoke next. His property is the one in question regarding the annexation. He isn't ready to hook up to city water yet, and he currently prefers his well water. Regal wanted to know if the annexation will
