BOONE, Iowa---The Boone City Council has selected July 13th as the date for a special election for residents of the city's 4th Ward. The 4th Ward position on the Council has been vacant since the resignation of Glen Thompson in March. Councilmember at Large, Gary Nystrom at the last meeting did say he had been contacted by a reliable source who told him one of the Councilmembers was aware of the time constraints for making an appointment and didn't say anything. Nystrom says the action shows a serious problem with the direction of the council.
