Work progresses on the new substation.
The Smithville mayor and board of aldermen voted Monday night to overturn a June Smithville Planning Commission decision not to approve plans for a new substation on South College Street. Alderman Gayla Hendrix first moved that action be put off until a later date, but the motion died for lack of a second. "This is a complicated issue," Hendrix said.
