Council round-up...

For those who want to keep tabs, here's what happened at last night's Jamestown Council meeting.

The board:
> Set a public hearing for a 44 acre, planned urban development special use permit request located at Harvey Road and Oakdale Road. The hearing will be at 7 p.m. Nov. 15, Jamestown Town Hall, during the council's monthly meeting.

> Approved contract work for some sewer line replacement and re-lining. The approval of the line replacement contract, worth $77,000, is contigent on the contractor's references checking out.

> Listened to a report from Assistant Town Manager Kathryn Billings about using Greensboro's inspections office instead of Guilford County's to handle building permits and inspections. Billings said the town is happy with Guilford County's services, but wanted to see if it is cheaper to use Greensboro. The numbers aren't in yet.

> Also listened to Billings talk about giving town employees a chance to set aside pre-tax money to pay for co-pays on things such as prescription drugs and doctor visits. The final report isn't ready.
