The Official Unofficial Minutes of the WL BOA
October 13th Meeting

Public Works-George
-The Instituform upgrades on sewer should be completed by the end of November.
-The Engineering for the 77th Street water line is almost complete. BOA approves timeline of letting bids around 19 November and bid opening of 12 November and review/approval of BOA at next meeting.
-The goal for road salt on hand is 400T, currently at 25o. We have agreement with vendor to purchase more @$100 a Ton.

Police-Gary
-Gary requested permission (granted) to pursue a grant for an additional full time police officer through a federal program known as COPS 2010. Program grants a community the base plus benefits for an officer with the agreement the community would provide the same for a fourth year. The program has two levels, one for cities above population of 150,000 and those below 150,000. Obviously the opportunity is very competitive. Thinking is to pursue the grant and if won, reduce the amount of part-time hours by the equivalent.
-The reciprocal commissions between WL-Platte Woods-Lake Waukomis approved by the BOA.

West Ridge at Weatherby Lake
-The Planning Commission approved and sent to the BOA the preliminary plat for the development. BOA approved. Final plat to be considered by the Planning Commission and then to the BOA by next BOA meeting.
-Three spec homes are being built and a lot has been purchased with plans for a custom home.
