Georgetown – A Central Illinois town could get a new shooting range.

 

The Georgetown City Council is expected to vote whether to lease a portion of land to a committee to put a shooting range in the city.

 

It will likely be built at Oubache Park a town planning committee says they would like to open a pistol range. The main focus of the new range would be to emphasize firearm safety and education.

 

The city owns Oubache Park's 18 acres, but the committee says council members have agreed to lease them that land. They are waiting for the lease proposal to be approved.
