(KLZA)-- The Falls City Council approved the appointment of Tm Daniels to fill the 10th Police Officer position when they met Monday night.
Under a conditional offer of employment, the appointment will be effective January 2, 2023, at which time he will enter the Law Enforecement Training Program at the State Patrol Training Center in Grand Island.
Daniels was present at the meeting and introduced himself to the Council. Daniels currently is a member of the Falls City Volunteer Fire Department and the Falls City Volunteer Ambulance Squad. He said he wants to make a difference in the community.
In other business the Council approved a rsolution to correct the salary for the Assistant Police Chief. Assistant Chief Patrick Stampers salary will be $71,920 for 2022-23, $74,797 for 23-24 and $77,040 in 2024-25.
A mistake had been made in the salary tabulation when the new salaries were approved earlier.
The Council took no action following a discussion about creating a no-parking zone on th eastern half of East 15th Street between Stone Street and Harlan Street. The topic was brought up because of the new diesel fuel pumps installed at Pump and Pantry.
The Council said it would revisit the topic if there were issues with large trucks turning into the pumps or pulling out.
The Council also approved the purchase of three trucks. An F350 Crew Cab with a service body and snow plow and two F600 4x4 trucks with two snow plows, two hook lift hoists and two roll-on dump bodies plus a roll-on chipper box and a roll-on salt/rock spreader.
Money has been set aside from the solid waste funds to purchase the trucks.
