Monday September 29th to begin site preparations for a new storage tank
facility. The Council consists of the Cities of Cottonwood and Ferdinand,

consisted of 5 dump trucks, 4 road graders, front end loader steel drum
roller and backhoe. A large portion of the topsoil was then donated
and hauled to the baseball field in the School District sports complex
(middle photo).
