Library leak addressed; Gateway director asks for volunteers and building repairs; sewer DNR inspection submitted
Summary
City officials reported a repaired water leak at the library and planned inspections of walls and windows; Gateway director asked for volunteers and building maintenance; clerk reported the sewer loan balance and submitted the DNR inspection for 2025.
At the St. Charles City Council meeting on July 14, Library Director Margaret Blair told the council a water leak at the library has been addressed and that staff will inspect the affected wall and window for damage.
Mary Seibert, director of Gateway and Old Settlers, said the Welcome Center needs volunteers and requested that the council look into building maintenance: plaster is falling under the west windows and the front stairs need painting. Seibert also provided a final update on Old Settlers activities for the council.
Under department reports the council received the June sewer report and a copy of the 2025 Iowa DNR inspection. The Clerk reported the remaining balance on the city’s sewer loans is $766,000.00.
The minutes record these items as department reports; no formal commitments, budget figures for repairs, or timelines for the requested maintenance work were recorded in the minutes. Council members did not record a specific funding authorization for the Welcome Center repairs during the meeting.
