Council member asks to add water-plant operator training to 2026 agenda, requests town hall
Summary
A council member asked that a water-plant operator training position be added to the 2026 agenda and proposed a community town-hall format to discuss succession and training needs for the water plant.
A Cloverdale council member asked that an item be added to the 2026 agenda to create an operator-training position at the city water plant and proposed holding a town hall to develop the plan.
The speaker said they had seen a town-hall model in Winfield and recommended using a similar format at a local store or public venue to gather community input and organize succession planning for plant operations. The request emphasized the need to develop internal capacity so someone can be trained to perform water-plant operator duties.
The transcript records the request as a future-agenda suggestion; it does not show a formal motion or vote to add the item to the 2026 agenda in the provided segments. No budget amounts or hiring timelines were specified.
