Fm-92 Radio Station and Bates County Live had the opportunity to meet the camera crew associated with taping segments  at Max Motors Car Dealership in Butler.
The community has been buzzing with rumors and the intentions of their presence in the area.  We welcome this 20 person crew that will make Butler their home for the next few months. New faces have been seen at various restaurants, local businesses and local events as these strangers work their way into the lives and hearts of our community. They are affiliated with Mark Muller of Max Motors.
We can’t let the cat out of bag…… but Muller stated to the media, “It’s all for fun and in no way will filming  intentionally  jeopardize the heart and soul of our community, its citizen’s or its reputation”. The presence of the crew has already increased the local economy.  
These new faces in our community will make Butler their home until late June. Let’s welcome these strangers to our community and extend them our home town friendship!

City of Butler Power Outage

Because there were some deficiencies found during the initial outage that need to be addressed, the City of Butler is scheduling another power outage for the morning hours of 1am – 3am on 
Monday, April 15th. This will affect everyone that is served electricity by the City of Butler. They are hopeful this outage will conclude their need for power interruptions, but in any other outages are needed the City of Butler will inform you as soon as possible. They apologize for any inconvenience that is a result of the outage and thank you for your cooperation.
