SILVER LAKE - Residents will soon have more channels on their cable television service.

A representative of Marcus Cable told the Silver Lake Town Council Tuesday that a new local channel, on which the town can announce meetings and events, is being added, as is the Prevue Channel, which lists programming on all channels.

Also, the following channels will be added to the broadcast basic: ESPN2, Nickelodeon, Lifetime, The Learning Channel, TNT and American Movie Classics. New premium channels now available are HBO2 and HBO Family.

In other business, the council signed a contract with Stafford's Solid Waste Inc. of Warsaw for trash collection for 1997.

The change in servers takes effect March 1 and collection will now be on Thursdays. There will be a six-bag limit per household per week.

In other matters, the council:

4 Regretfully accepted the resignation of Town Marshal Travis Marsh. He will leave his post effective March 15, and applications for his replacement will be accepted after Feb. 15. Marsh, who also resigned as a deputy marshal at Pierceton, will take a job with the Syracuse Police Department.

4 Approved a fire department proposal to purchase two new bay doors with electric openers and four radio-control transmitters for a total of $2,624. The fire department was also given the go-ahead to hire an electrician to find the electric problem in the building.

4 Signed a resolution with Kosciusko County, the Indiana Department of Natural Resources and Indiana Department of Environmental Management regarding wellhead protection and groundwater protection. This was a necessary step before the town's water project can begin.

4 Signed a maintenance agreement with Keystone Consulting or budgeting and billing software maintenance at a cost of $1,035.

4 Approved construction of a small building at the sewer ponds. The structure will be erected by Carr Construction for a cost of $1,190.

A public hearing for additional appropriations to the general fund will precede the March 11 meeting. The hearing begins at 6:30 p.m. and the meeting at 7 p.m. in the town hall. [[In-content Ad]]
