The Black Hawk Planning Commission recommended that a representative from the Black Hawk Council attend a Central City Council meeting. Black Hawk Council wishes for Central City Council to know that the council is open to discussion on matters which are arising and concern both cities. Black Hawk hopes to solicit cooperation between the two entities. The council agreed with Bowles casting the only dissenting vote.
A little comic relief was provided by Pat Taylor last week when she popped into the office. Hearing flood predictions on radio and TV, she wanted to make sure that not only was she prepared, but was appropriately attired to offer her timely suggestion on safety. She is modeling her own special “Mae West,” a la innertube. Needless to say, her advice was greeted with laughter and appreciation by not only the staff, but startled tourists. Even though the flood warning was for 8,000 feet and below, it seems Taylor is a big believer in “being prepared.” After all, Black Hawk is only 8,042 feet. Thanks for making our day! Later in the day at least one of our Register-Call staff was wishing that she had brought Taylor’s innertube with her. It would have been helpful in navigating the flooded streets she encountered on the way to the press.
