KEYSTONE HEIGHTS— Voters approved a charter amendment that will allow the city council to increase the dollar amount of purchases the city could make without soliciting bids and a second that will allow for the censure of council members.
However, they turned away an amendment that would have allowed the city council to choose Keystone Heights’s mayor instead of voters and rejected a second that would have prohibited council members from interfering in the day-to-day activities of city workers.
Only mail-in ballots were excepted for the April 10 election. The Clay County Supervisor of Elections, who ran the election for the city, said it received only 141 ballots, about one-half the number usually cast in a Keystone Heights city election.
