In an effort to spruce up the city, the Atmore City Council unanimously agreed Monday  to continue with a resolution already in place.

Work has already begun along the guidelines of the resolution by ridding the city of areas that have become an eyesore as well as a danger around town.

The resolution will allow crews to continue with cleaning of properties inside the city limits declared to be a grass and weed nuisance.

The original resolution was adopted during the council’s Aug. 8 meeting and resulted in the clearing of 10 Atmore properties.

The continued resolution lists another 10 addresses, three of which have already been cleared and mowed by city workers.

Locations on the list include: 167 2nd Ave.; 154 Bullard St.; 156 Bullard St.; 114 Harris St.; 102 Hollis St.; 104 Hollis St.; 95 Jones St.; 151 Moseley St.; 161 Moseley St.; and a Wilson Avenue address.

In other business the council:
• Approved the request of the Women of Distinction for a Walk-A-Thon to be held Saturday, Oct. 29 beginning at the Atmore YMCA and ending at Tom Byrne Park;
• Approved the request of Escambia County High School for a homecoming bon fire Thursday, Oct. 20 and a homecoming parade Friday, Oct. 21.
