SOUTH WHITLEY - Residents of Larwill, Pierceton and South Whitley started meeting about a year ago and formed the Whitko Leadership Council. About 20 "council" members met Wednesday in the Brownstone Cafe to continue business.

Library Director Recommends Change In Internet Service

Warsaw Community Public Library Director Ann Zydek reported on a plethora of meetings attended by library officials in September, including an Indiana Cooperative Library Services Authority forum at the Peabody Public Library, Columbia City. During that meeting, Zydek gathered information pertaining to the new Indiana library consortium for Internet services.Last month, the board of WCPL trustees denied the option of joining the consortium, a decision Zydek believed should be reviewed further. Due to the closing of Intelenet, WCPL's current Internet provider, board members have researched other means of acquiring Internet access.After attending the INCOLSA forum, Zydek recommended approving the consortium application to allow for library flexibility in a final decision.

Training Requirement Dropped For Local Election Workers

Training sessions for Kosciusko County election employees will no longer be mandatory. The election board approved the drop of the mandatory requirement Friday.The board also approved dropping the reduction in pay for those employees who missed the training sessions. The motion came from a suggestion by Democratic Party Chairman Steve Haines. The board reasoned that most election workers had worked the polls many times in the past and didn't need the repeated training. The board also discussed the financial reports of local candidates.Board Secretary Marsha McSherry said some candidates haven't filed their reports yet.It was determined that a courtesy letter or call would be made to those who have yet to file. The Wawasee School Board also requested that their attorney, David Kates, be present election night at the polls.Kates does not represent any candidate so the board determined that they will appoint him as a watcher.
