A contract to clean up the Pendleton Oil Mill was an "early Christmas present" to the town, capping a year of growth and planning, according to Mayor Frank Crenshaw.
New parking for downtown, to increase the walkability for the growing area and a strategic plan which includes a new fire station and a pubic works building are also on the horizon.
Crenshaw outlined the year, including the new plans for recreation and trails, in this interview with the Anderson Observer.
