City Considering Preliminary Approval for Fenton Wellness Center
One-story, 100-bed skilled rehabilitation facility, by MediLodge, is planned off Pine Creek Drive.
Changes in the market occurred several years ago, and Pine Creek in Fenton wasn’t completed as a housing development. With changes in the Planned Unit Development (PUD) agreement for the site, it can be developed as the Fenton Wellness Center, a rehabilitation facility for the MediLodge group. The Fenton Planning Commission has granted its approval for the preliminary PUD amendments, and city council is the next step, said Zoning Administrator Brad Hissong. At the planning commission meeting on Thursday, architect Daniel DeRemer, of JW Design, presented plans for the Fenton Wellness Center, a 100-bed facility. It will be a one-story building with 80 percent private rooms and 20 percent semi-private ones, DeRemer said. What it won’t be is, …

Fenton Staff Offers Tips for Students with 'Butterflies'
Getting a good night's sleep and a good breakfast are important for kindergarten, while staying organized and making school a priority are keys to sixth grade success.
The first day of school is an opportunity for students at a new building to begin making lots of new friends and broadening their horizons, teachers and counselors say. Nevertheless, there will be some children who have "butterflies" in their stomachs about starting kindergarten, or moving from elementary school to middle school. Many new kindergarten students are used to being away from home and in class, since they've had daycare or preschool, said kindergarten teacher Teresa Squires, from Fenton's North Road Elementary School. It's her second time teaching kindergarten, after teaching it 20 years ago. "There aren't as many criers as there used to be," Squires said. But there are usually a few students who are nervous. Squires recommends…

Fenton Councilman Asks for Answer to Chicken Question
Les Bland is encouraging residents to come to Monday's council meeting and weigh in with their thoughts on the issue.
After seven months, it's time for Fenton to make a decision on whether to allow chicken keeping in the city, Councilman Les Bland said at Monday's worksession. "It's making us look like idiots," Bland said. "I get comments on it every day. ... We need to give them an answer." The issue went to the Fenton Planning Commission, which decided to let it die without tabling it or voting on it, said Councilman Ben Smith. Smith represents the council on the planning commission. Smith said he'll vote against an ordinance allowing chicken keeping, whether it allows one chicken or 20. "My feeling is, chickens don't belong in a city," he said. Since the planning commission didn't look at the issue and do their jobs, it's up to council, Bland said. …
