Several topics were up for discussion during the regular Napoleon City Council meeting last Monday evening, June 2.
Councilmen present included Mayor Todd Moos, John Wald, Clark Haas, Bob Humann and Rod Kleppe, while absent was Mike Heying.

The request was from pedestrian trail coordinator Bob Humann for $30,000, which would be taken from the city sales tax capital improvement fund.
