Despite the extreme heat the last week, Mt. Carmel city officials are already prepping for snowy winter travel. Construction will start soon on the new salt storage bin that will make it easier for crews to access salt to combat icy city streets. Street commissioner Tom Meeks said the new storage benefit will help more than just Mt. Carmel…
Meeks also said recent work by Mayor Joe Judge and city inspector Mike Gidcumb saved the city about two-thirds the estimated cost of the salt storage bin.
