Wheatland reports water tower work complete; hydrants to be flushed and meter replacements nearly finished
Summary
City public works reported that water tower work is complete and hydrants will be flushed; the city clerk said 24 meter replacements remain and will be completed soon. Resident Barb Gerber asked the council to pump storm drains that are full of sand and dirt; staff said it will be addressed.
Public works reported at the Wheatland City Council meeting on Sept. 9 that water tower work is complete and the department plans to flush hydrants on Thursday as part of follow-up operations. The report was given during the council’s regular business updates.
City Clerk Meghan Ganzer told the council she will be out of the office Sept. 16–27 and that nearly all meter replacements are finished, with 24 meters still to be replaced.
During public forum, resident Barb Gerber asked that storm drains be pumped because they were "full of sand and dirt," and the council acknowledged her request and said it would be taken care of. No timeline for the storm-drain work was recorded in the meeting minutes.
These routine maintenance items were reported without contested debate and no formal action was taken beyond scheduling the hydrant flushing and noting the clerk’s upcoming leave.
