This week the Belmond City Council approved an Engagement Agreement with the Ahlers and Cooney law firm for Amendment #1 to the Commercial Urban Renewal Plan.
City officials say this would be the next step in moving forward with a new swimming pool.
It was noted that the amendment would also encompass the remaining portion of 3rd Street Northeast to help when it comes time to complete.
In addition, there is no downside to doing the Urban Renewal amendment other than the cost to have it amended.
