Discussions on a number of budget-related items — staffing levels, equipment replacement and a program to track maintenance — took center stage at Tuesday’s Iola City Council meeting.

The debate grew spirited at several points in the 90-minute meeting, prompting Councilman Ron Ballard to speak out afterward on social media.

 

Ballard was referring to a pair of votes, both of which he opposed.

The first was the $16,474 the Council approved for a workforce and organizational study, and $32,495 authorized for a software-based work order and asset management system.
