BUTLER CITY COUNCL MEETING-JAN 17, 2012

In Butler City Council news, the Council feels it's time to update its agreement with United Telephone, seeing as how the present one is 45 years old, and has been charging the phone company only two dollars per pole for it to lease space here in town.
And besides, it's not even "United" anymore...the company is now "CenturyLink."

That company has indicated it's willing to go to eight dollars per pole, and feels all is necessary between them and Butler, would be an amendment. However, the Council feels a new agreement is in order, so City Administrator Mark Arbuthnot and the city attorney will be holding further discussions. It appears that this can be settled without much trouble.

Mystery unfolds on West 52 in Butler...

Now the dust has settled on the grand opening of the Walmart Supercenter, many have turned their eyes towards the former Walmart building on west 52 in Butler. We've all been wondering what store is going to occupy the 40,000+ square foot building that recently got some parking lot improvements and it's clearly obvious other work is going on inside as well- six cars were spotted in the parking lot this morning.

While the rumor mill has been running at full speed, it's quite clear that 'those in the know' are going to wait a little longer to put up a sign.

We'll advise you the instant we know for sure!
