Recovering from the tornado is the first thing on everyone's mind including the City Council for Taylorville. Everyone on the council took the time to thank residents of Taylorville for all they have done since Saturday in terms of coming together as a community and helping to start the healing process. Mayor Barry does want the public to be aware that free legal advice will be provided to senior citizens, and those interested need to contact Skip Depaepe (DEE-PAP) at 824-2104.

Mayor Bruce Barry was happy to announce some good news as well, as the Council approved a special use to get a solar farm into the City of Taylorville, as well as they annexed the property where the solar farm will be implemented. Hopefully construction will begin in 2020

The Taylorville City Council meets on the first Monday of every month at the Municipal Building.
