The Lake Shore City Council took care of business in fast fashion during a six-minute regular meeting Monday, Nov. 22.

Council member John Terwilliger was absent.

The council learned design work continues on Trail 77. A meeting was scheduled with the Indian Affairs Council and the Office of State Archeologist regarding the trail.

The council deferred assessment without interest for Robinhood Way improvements for a resident who is a disabled veteran.

In public safety news, Lake Shore Police Chief Steve Sundstrom said October was a bit busier than average with 52 traffic related incidents and 39 miscellaneous calls.
