Patrick Fisher, Staff Writer

The Elko and New Market Consolidated Council unanimously approved an order for street and utility improvements in Elko at its Thursday, June 22, meeting.

Tim Murray of Bolton & Menk Inc., the engineer service that works with Elko, presented the request for the improvements during a public hearing, where there were nearly 30 people, many residents from the area affected. There are four streets that will have work done on them—265th Street East, Drew Avenue, Chowen Avenue and Ptarmigan Court.
