The Garretson City Council passed Ordinance 656, which relaxes some restrictions on businesses within the City limits, allowing them to operate somewhat closer to normal, while still taking into consideration pandemic mitigation measures. The Garretson School Board discussed options for graduation, stating that while they'd like to have a normal ceremony, they will have to follow state and federal guidelines, and discussed plans to use the football field if this is not possible. They moved the date of graduation to June. We also take a look at several farmers' issues, including pandemic disaster relief efforts, ethanol, and more. Plus, more Class of 2020 spotlights and a message from Mayor Greg Beaner with some good news. Read your issue today!.
