Jerry & George

The Official Unofficial Minutes of the WL BOA
1 September Meeting

Hunt Midwest
North Amity from 152 to Tiffany Springs will be improved to match the Tiffany Springs improvements as part of the Hunt Midwest Project. No dates given.

Amity at Barry
No stoplight when the project is complete, although conduit will be laid to accommodate a light for the future (per George).

BZA
Recently approved a variance for the Berman property.

50th Anniversary
Alderman Finn reported the turnout of 75 to 100 people.

MPR Annual Training Meeting
Jerry attended the meeting of the organization which represents our "self funding" for insurance. Jerry said the meeting "made him nervous", especially regarding the non-coverage of unlicensed vehicles...specifically the Kubotas used for grinder repairs, etc. Led him to wonder what else isn't covered, so he would like the BOA to consider review at coming meeting(s).

Money from KCMO
$24,000 for sewer and $50,000 for entrance monuments received this week.

George
DNR AuditBulleted ListConducted last month, 250 questions of Water Department. Our last audit was about 9 years ago. Two major deficiencies were found:
  • The City failed to collect a 2$ primacy fee from users
  • The City does not have a 2nd licensed water operator (George is our only operator)
Luke is signed up for class to become licensed, in the meantime a reciprocal agreement could be struck with MidAmerican.

Water shut off
Wednesday night the water from Conant to Grass Pad was shut off (Midnight to 4AM), part of the Barry Road project. George went to the tower to insure it was full prior to shutoff to insure we had water for emergencies...north of Barry was without water during this time.
