The Fort Payne City Council held a brief meeting on Tuesday with a public hearing to receive public comments on a proposed re-zoning of property followed by a long work session touching on several frequent topics.
The Council gave second reading to and approved an ordinance establishing a speed limit on Echols Drive. They discussed installing windows from Kudzu Millworks on the front of the small building where Fort Payne Main Street is re-locating to make it more energy efficient and will revisit the issue with price estimates. Council Member Phillip Smith said the airport committee reported that the complete repaving of the tarmac will be put off until August due to heavy traffic relating to flyers dropping their children off at the Mentone summer camps.

The upper-ridge remains in control of our weather, and continues to hold in place across the Deep South much of the week, causing afternoon highs to climb into the low and mid-90s for many locations, which will be close to records for this time of year.
We are seeing more sun than clouds, and we are looking for heat relief in the form of showers and storms, but with sinking air due to ridge and limited moisture levels, these will not materialize over Alabama. With the air being relatively dry, though days are very hot, nights will be fair and comfortable with lows in the 60s.
