Parking will be limited to only one side of select streets as Creston City Council unanimously aproved a parking pilot program during Tuesday’s regular meeting. The proposed idea stems from a council meeting in April, when the first plans for the pilot parking program were brought forward. The passed ordinance limits parking to the east sides of the 100 through 500 blocks of South Lincoln Street and Myrtle Street. The ordinance also restricts
parking to the west side of the 200 block of South Peterson Street. However, once the snow removal ordinance goes into effect, parking guidelines will follow the snow removal ordinance. Council heard from residents at a meeting in May, where it listened to the public’s concerns. The original plan was for parking on the east side of all three streets, but after hearing from residents the council decided to switch parking to the west side of South Peterson Street based on parking availability.

WASHINGTON (AP) — The Supreme Court is letting a limited version of the Trump administration ban on travel from six mostly Muslim countries to take effect, a victory for President Donald Trump in the biggest legal controversy of his young presidency. The court said Monday the ban on visitors from Iran, Libya, Somalia, Su-
dan, Syria and Yemen could be enforced as long as they lack a “credible claim of a bona fide relationship with a person or entity in the United States.” The justices will hear arguments in the case in October. Trump said last week that the ban would take effect 72 hours after being cleared by TRAVEL | 2A
