Black Hawk Acquires Open Space Property; Awards Parking Structure Contract
By Jaclyn Morrow
Once past the construction zone with frequent single lane traffic this summer on Gregory Street, we continued uphill to 211 Church Street, where Black Hawk City Council gathered for their regular meeting, Wednesday, June 28, 2017. Proud City Manager and “Grandpa” Jack Lewis introduced his Army family from NC: Captain Major Nate White, daughter Gracie, Warien, Jeremiah, and infant to the Council members. At 2:58 pm Mayor Spellman asked Jeremiah and Warien White to pull on the rope to ring the old bell. With much excitement the two preschool grandsons of City Manager Jack Lewis, attempted to ring the bell to begin the meeting. Younger Jerimiah tried first, then Warien pulled on the rope enough to move the bell but not ring it.
