I would like to share with you some of the City of Glasgow’s accomplishments that took place in 2017 and what our goals are for 2018. I will be updating you on different subjects and projects, and our progress via Glasgow Courier, City of Glasgow website and KLTZ/KLAN. Today I would like to address our levee system. 2017 was a pivotal year for the City of Glasgow as we worked on numerous issues.

The City Council would like to ensure the community that we have a snow removal plan in place that tries to encompass all scenarios and flexibility as possible while addressing the needs of the public.

I applied for a permit to have my NE MT Pet Rescue at my residence in the City of Glasgow. I was already active and decided that since I helped out with the ordinance for this, I should abide. The open City Council meeting was Jan. 2, 2018. (Meeting minutes are public if you would like to read them.) My voice failed my rescue. I couldn’t utter the words that I had in my heart. I just sat there and listened, barely comprehending what I was hearing statements like, “Your heart is in the right place, but you do not belong in town, not in our neigh...

I want to respond to the article in the paper about the pet rescue (Glasgow City Council Denies Pet Rescue, Jan. 10, 2018). I live north of Glasgow on the Opheim highway in the summer, and a year ago someone, on a very hot day, dumped a big dog on the road. No water or food. The dog finally came into my yard. I fed and watered it for a month or so until I had to move to Billings for the winter. I couldn’t take the dog so I asked Cindy Ramsbacher if she could find a home for him. She took the dog and I don’t know what she did with him, but I’m...
In a vote of four to one, the Glasgow City Council has voted to deny Cindy Ramsbacher’s application for a permit to operate a pet rescue at her home address within city limits. A well-organized group of opponents, made up of area homeowners, made their feelings regarding the permit known in statements and in writing at the Jan. 2 meeting in council chambers. Ramsbacher, of Northeast Montana Pet Rescue, is respected and well known in the area for offering services to abandoned and mistreated pets, and her efforts have placed animals in many l...
I am writing this letter in response to the decision that was reached by the City Council. They denied Cindy [Ramsbacher] a pet rescue permit. I really don't understand this decision. We have had a cat rescue in Glasgow for some time, so why give them a permit and not Cindy? Cindy works very hard to take care of every dog she gets. They are fed, they are warm, and they go to the vet to get their shots and whatever they need. She also tries very hard to get them adopted. I have a dog that I adopted from her. I love him She will not be able to...
