• Chesterfield mayor breaks tie in contested vote to purchase sculptures (westnewsmagazine.com) — Chesterfield's mayor has just broken a 4–4 City Council tie to spend $30,000 in parks funds on three public sculptures, including the return of the Yue Ling Chen statue to Central Park. Supporters praised the artwork's quality and symbolism, while opponents questioned its relevance and timing as the city considers a costly new aquatic center and higher taxes.
