Brownton takes up building inspector position
Brownton has been struggling with the process of its building permits for years, and it was the topic of conversation again at its city council meeting Sept. 1.
The council spent August working with its building inspector, Darin Haslip, after a general consensus among the councilors and mayor to open the position at the prior meeting, Aug. 4.
Haslip considered resigning from the position this summer, but Brownton Mayor Norman Schwarze and City Clerk Lori Cacka have been working with him toward keeping him on the job.
