The Higginsville Board of Aldermen was asked to approve an addendum to a cooperation agreement between the city and the Higginsville Housing Authority during its meeting on Monday, January 6.
City Administrator Jeanette Dobson explains.

Dobson says the 10 percent still will be paid this month for last year. However, the new agreement will kick in this year and affect the payment the agency will make to the city next January.
