Summary

Swisher City Council approved a suite of motions and resolutions including a subdivision site plan (Resolution 48), an asbestos inspection for downtown park garages (Resolution 49), contractor award for demolition and gravel parking (Resolution 50), appointments to the Swisher Board of Trustees (Resolution 51), and a five-year storage agreement with Johnson County EMS (Resolution 52); roll-call votes were recorded and motions carried.

At its July 22 meeting the Swisher City Council approved multiple resolutions and routine actions.

Resolution 48 approved a site plan and updated final plat for the "Swisher 60" subdivision in Johnson County. Resolution 49 authorized a proposal from Environet for approximately $700 to perform asbestos inspection and reporting services on two downtown park garages. Resolution 50 awarded a $16,400 proposal to Midwest Demo Contractors for demolition of two garages, removal of trade material, and construction of gravel parking in the downtown park; council agreed to award the contract but to delay setting a demolition date until any needed Board of Adjustments action is resolved.

Resolution 51 appointed Lindy, Karen and Craig to the Swisher Board of Trustees with staggered term expirations; council noted a fifth applicant applied after the agenda and will be considered at a subsequent meeting. Resolution 52 approved a five-year agreement with Johnson County EMS to store non-response equipment (an EMS trailer and an antique fire truck) behind City Hall; the agreement allows either party to terminate early with 90 days' notice and requires EMS to insure contents while the city insures the building.

Council also authorized submission of the fiscal year 2024 debt obligation report to the Iowa Treasurer's office as required by state reporting rules. Multiple roll-call votes were recorded on the resolutions; the transcript records motions and affirmative responses with the chair calling the tally but does not provide a fully mapped vote-by-name tally in the record.
