The new Durant water tower remains on-schedule as crews were on site painting the structure last week. According to city clerk Deana Cavin, there are still items that need to be completed before the August deadline, which include testing for bacteria and utility work. Cavin said the additional tower would add another 255,000 gallons of elevated water storage, doubling the current reserves that only offer the town about a day's worth of water during emergencies. While the extra tower will help with stored water, Cavin also hoped it would help with water pressure on the north side of town and be able to service the new and existing sub-divisions in the area.

Members of Walcott American Legion Post 548 look on as flames consume old American flags. The flags were destroyed following a recent ceremony at the Walcott landfill. According to the U.S. Flag Code, when a flag’s condition has deteriorated to the point that it is no longer of fitting emblem for display, it should be destroyed in a dignified way, preferably by burning. The Walcott Legion accepts discarded flags all year and destroys them periodically.
