Editor’s note: This report was prepared by freelance journalist Kevin Koelling from a recording Joe Meyer made of the interview he conducted with Councilman Tony Hollinden.

Joe Meyer, one of the leaders of an effort to prevent the annexation of 1,776 acres by Tell City, invited candidates in the upcoming election to give their views on the border expansion.

The Tell City Common Council adopted an annexation ordinance in April 2014 despite strong resistance at meetings then and a month earlier.

I would like to thank the following businesses and organizations that participated in the staff health fair at Tell City Junior-Senior High School: Caryn Weiss with Perry County Memorial Hospital, Debbie Gengelbach with Burris-LeClere-Labhart, Mary Steed with Golden Living, Breanne Walsh with EverBody’s Fun and Fitness, Jay Johnson with Advocare, Audrie Fella for massages, CVS for flu shots and Liberty Lab for bloodwork.

 I would also like to thank John Smitson and Julie Wooldridge for help in setting up.

This is in regard to the Sept. 7 editorial about Kim Davis, (“Clerk who refuses to issue licenses should resign.”)

I think as a Christian she had the right to stand for what she believes. It’s about the holy word of God we must stand on and not man’s word.

But not too many people read God’s holy word, sad to say. If God’s people would stand up for the word of God, our nation wouldn’t be in the trouble it’s in.
