The Scott County Board met Tuesday, Jan. 8. Here's what they did, according to a press release from the administrator's office:

- The commissioners received a federal issues update from U.S. Rep. John Kline, R-Minn., who discussed concerns that ranged from the earmarking process to the larger economy.

- Carrying on a long tradition, Commissioner Barbara Marschall, as 2007 county board chairwoman, presented the annual Year in Review presentation, which was organized by the board's five strategic initiatives.

Scott County is pleased with the progress the city of Jordan is making toward a building a new library.

And from reading the story this week in the Belle Plaine Herald, it doesn't sound like the library is in danger of closing anymore.

If you remember, the Scott County Library Board a couple years ago alluded to plans to shut things down in Jordan if the city wouldn't improve the facility. City officials took seriously the letters they received from the library board, and a new city hall and library are on the docket for construction in the coming years.
