Kewanee Mayor Gary Moore joined Wake Up Tri-Counties to recap the Kewanee City Council Meeting on February 10, 2025. Finance Director James Webb presented the 2024 city audit, assuring no future audit issues after resolving past finance department concerns. Two ordinance amendments passed successfully. Exciting news for the Henry County Humane Society, which received a donation and a 40-year lease for a new shelter on South Fisher Avenue. However, during the meeting, residents voiced concerns over the proposed assistant for City Manager Gary Bradley, given budgetary constraints. Mayor Moore explained the assistant's cost is balanced by six recently unfilled city positions, lightening Bradley's current workload.
