Summary
The Powell City Council approved the meeting agenda, October minutes and payment of bills totaling $848,117.21, and authorized several intergovernmental agreements with YDOT tied to the Highway 14 mill-and-overlay project. The council tabled Ordinance 19-20-25 (a deannexation petition) because the petitioner was not present.
The Powell City Council on an otherwise routine agenda approved the meeting agenda, the October minutes and payment of bills totaling $848,117.21 and authorized city signatures on multiple intergovernmental agreements with the Wyoming Department of Transportation (YDOT). The council also voted to table Ordinance 19-20-25 regarding a deannexation petition after the petitioner did not attend.
Most votes were procedural and carried without recorded opposition. A motion to approve the agenda was moved and seconded and passed. The council then approved the October minutes and moved to pay the citys bills in the amount of $848,117.21; one council member stated they would not vote on item number 52. Each of those motions carried by voice vote.
City staff presented three items tied to YDOTs Highway 14 mill-and-overlay project which the council approved: a water purchase agreement enabling YDOT contractors to use city hydrants (metered and billed at standard city rates), a memorandum of agreement/permit, and a warranty deed involving small permanent and temporary rights-of-way payments. The council authorized signatures on each agreement.
The council took formal action to table Ordinance 19-20-25, a petition that would deannex two lots, after discussion about lack of services on the subject lots and the absence of the petitioner. A motion was made and seconded to table the ordinance until the petitioner could attend; the motion carried.
Other routine approvals included an annual snow collection and deposit agreement with the county to use the fairgrounds as a snow disposal site and authorization of signatures. Staff also presented the first-quarter revenue and expense report and noted overall spending was near expected levels.
