(KLZA)-- The Mound City Board of Aldermen discussed options for a storm sewer dumping into Davis Creek and options for draining an area west of Railroad Street when they met for their March meeting. Don Volz presented information about a flume west of the lagoon fence that goes under the levee and dumps into the creek. Since it is not on city property Aldermen were not aware of the flume and will be doing more research on a possible solution.

Council members discussed sidewalk issues. The Council voted to allow a sidewalk to be put back at the same width as what is removed if less than 25% of the sidewalk is removed. If more than 25% is removed the sidewalk must be put back at a 5-foot width.

Joe Bullock met with the Council requesting power poles be relocated to wide an alley. Bullock would pay the cost of moving the poles and removing poles that are not in use. KCP&L is to get back with the City with a cost estimate.

Aldermen gave permission for 2 Trendy LLC to hold an catered event May 16th at Extreme Fireworks. Spring Clean Up Day was scheduled for Sunday, April 26 from 1-3 p-m in Mound City.

The 2015 Dodge pickup for the Mound City Police Department is to be delivered this week. The Council granted permission for Police Chief John Panning to apply for MoDOT grant to purchase two radar units for police vehicles. MoDOT pays 90 percent of the cost.

A bid to mow parks was awarded to TCozz Mowing at a cost of $5,915 per year was approved. The Council approved an option to extend the contract at the same rate for three years. TCozz Mowing was also awarded one of the bids for fertilizer and broadleaf control. The other bid was awarded to Jeremy Lewis, Custom Waterworks.

Water Superintendent Randy Crowley will be taking bids for cleaning out the lime pits.
