Council approves permits, fee waiver and preliminary plat; staff to follow up on tornado siren
Summary
Council approved a Rotary special-event permit, a fee waiver for the Monroe County Fair Association, and the preliminary plat for Deer Rigs subdivision; members asked staff to investigate a tornado siren concern at the old firehouse.
The council handled several routine items and an after-deadline operational concern.
Members approved a special-event permit for the Rotary Club’s annual 'bucket brigade' (scheduled 06/06/2026, 7:30 a.m.–12:30 p.m.) and a fee-waiver request from the Monroe County Fair Association for a storage building. Both motions were made, seconded and approved by roll call.
Planning staff summarized changes made to the preliminary plat for Deer Rigs subdivision; committees recommended favorably and the council voted to accept the preliminary plat by roll call.
During 'matters arriving after agenda deadline' a council member raised that a tornado siren at the old firehouse appeared to operate only between midnight and 4 a.m.; staff reported recent checks, noted parts are difficult to source, and said they would pursue replacement or repair options.
All routine motions passed; staff was asked to report back on the siren replacement cost and schedule.
