The history of Belleview might be able to fit neatly on a bookshelf in the near future.
At the beginning of Tuesday night’s Belleview City Commission meeting, Tom Dann, president of the Friends of the Belleview Public Library group, told commissioners he had been approached by Arcadia Publishing about producing a book for the company’s Images of America series.
“They’d like to do one for Belleview,” Dann said.
Dann said the best history of the city he has been able to find is contained in a 1997 report the city commissioned when discussing the possibility of creating a historic district.
