Kandiyohi reviews state drinking-water report, approves local operator training
Summary
Council reviewed Minnesota Department of Health drinking-water and sanitary survey reports, recorded September water and sewer usage (969,000 and 1,079,000 gallons), and approved a March MN Rural Water training session for local operators.
Public Works provided the City Council an overview of the Minnesota Department of Health drinking‑water report and sanitary survey. The reports are available for public review at the city office for 10 years.
The council recorded September water usage of 969,000 gallons and sewer usage of 1,079,000 gallons. Council Member Scott McGillivray moved to approve a MN Rural Water Association training session for local water operators to be held in March at the Fire Hall, contingent on prior approval by the Kandiyohi Fire Chief; Council Member Jeff Clark seconded and the motion carried.
Public Works reported that fall street sweeping will take place over the next several weeks. The city clerk requested upgrading the city website to increase usability and administrative features; the council voted to table a decision on a proposed four‑year website contract until the next meeting so members could review upgraded portfolios from other cities.
The approved local training is intended for operational staff and water operators; the council did not authorize any changes to treatment or distribution protocols in this meeting.
