The Town of Trion Council Thursday night approved to apply for a $500,000 grant to redo the sewer system in Frogtown. A public hearing on the measure preceded the meeting.

The Council also approved a bid by Prestige Buildings for $29,885 to redo the sidewalk on Dalton Street, near the recreation department. That amount was less than the town had budgeted for the work.

An amendment to the town's charter was also approved allowing the Mayor to vote if a tie needs to be broken.

In other business, the town opened bids for the mowing of its cemeteries. The measure was tabled and the issue is expected to be voted on in a called meeting in about two weeks.
