Will Blue Township be called East Manhattan or North St George?

(Editor’s Note: Blue Township is Pottawatomie County just East of Manhattan. Builders and buyers have been going East for about the last10-years. Some say it is because of the City of Manhattan high taxes and building Codes. Whatever the reason the area has grown to the point were the Pottawatomie County Commission have hired a Law firm to figure out what the area needs to do. The questions are: will the area be taken into the City of Manhattan; or be annexed by St.George. If you read this County Memo you will find other directions the area could take.)
