IRON MOUNTAIN -- Partnership fees for the Dickinson Area Partnership might mean the city of Iron Mountain won't be a member this year.  The city council had only budgeted $3,000 for a membership fee this year, even though the partnership has requested $6,000.

Iron Mountain has been a part of the partnership since 2005, and the fee has always been $6,000 for a full year's membership.

The city has received a six-month contract for the $3,000 they have available, however, no final decision was made at the city council meeting Tuesday night.

A decision will be made on March 1, according to officials.
