REGARDING:
“according to town officials, the town received the wrong form from the USDA, ”

Please consider that the more of your life you place in the hands of the government, the more of your life the government can do this to.

What I don’t understand is the one and half million dollar price tag.
Why not just go above the first place and dig over to the gas pipe and
cut if off and route to the side of the highway. Then run it down the side
of the road to where you would have to do the same manuver to reconnect,
THUS cutting OUT the leaking area? I have done that a million times
with pvc when my yard sprinklers were leaking under a side walk.
You don’t have to tear up the whole road and there is no reason the pipe
MUST run the whole way down under the HIGHWAY RIGHT?

It was the Century Chamber of Commerce, not the Town of Century, that did not have the funds to contribute to the firework show. The Town of Century and the Town of Flomaton are each contributing $2,500 to the firework show.

OK How can Century pay for this million dollar project but can’t afford a $1,500 firework show? Some things don’t make much since and this is one of those things. If Century was to have activities for the community like a community fundraiser then we all can get things done that need to be done. Do what schools do and churches do when they need money. I SAY DO A COMMUNITY FUNDRAISER FOR CENTURY
