Zoning Administrator Clint Johnson provided the council with an update on the new Sewer Plant. Grass seeding at the plant should be finished early this week, and the city has ordered a new slurry wagon and hose reel, paid for with left over grant money.
The council approved the final reading of a bond ordinance for the Sewer Plant project, and a payment of $248,000 to contractor Erikson Construction. Stephens says they’re putting the finishing touches on the project. (play audio :27)
In other business, the Pawnee City Council appointed Joe Davis to fill a vacancy on the Airport Authority.
The council renewed a maintenance agreement and certificate of compliance regarding snow removal with the Nebraska Department of Roads for the 2013 calendar year.
Council appointed Clint Johnson as the Shop Foreman on an interim basis to replace Don Inglis, who is retiring as of October 19th.
The council also continued discussion on the Truck Route through Pawnee City. Stephens says the council agrees with the current truck route, though there will be more discussion on that at the next council meeting on October 22nd. That, and another topic of interest has prompted a change of venue for the next City Council meeting. (play audio :29)
