						| Sue McLaughlin, 
						city administrator, and Ken 
						Greenslate, Lincoln police chief, stand in a doorway in the 
						city's police department offices. Some rooms are 
						small enough that aldermen had to take turns going in and 
						out. | Alderman Tom O'Donohue slides between a fire truck and a 
						large piece of stationary equipment in the city of 
						Lincoln firehouse. This is the only path  
						through the firehouse when trucks are parked inside. |  
Tuesday 
evening, members of the Lincoln City Council and city government took tours of 
the city's police and fire departments. The purpose of the tours was to 
give the respective chiefs an opportunity to speak about the conditions in which 
they and their staff work on a daily basis. The city is currently trying 
to find solutions for these problems and is struggling with finding a means to 
finance a new facility for the departments that would accommodate their needs 
more comfortably.  LDN will have complete coverage on the tours and other 
city issues in its Thursday edition.
