Chamber requests fee waiver, asks about $5,000 donation and community recycle day
Summary
Jeanne Wortman, director of the Missouri Valley Chamber, requested a fee waiver to host "Hop Into Spring" at the Rand Center, asked the council about the historical $5,000 city donation to the Mo Valley rally, and discussed April 11 community recycle dumpsters (approx. $1,000 total, split with the Masonic Lodge).
Jeanne Wortman, who identified herself as director of the Missouri Valley Chamber, asked the council to waive facility fees for the Chamber’s Hop Into Spring event (proposed March 27) and confirmed the Chamber would prepare an invoice if the council intends to provide the customary $5,000 donation for the Mo Valley rally.
Wortman described planned activities for Hop Into Spring, including an Easter‑bunny photo area and egg‑decorating for children, and told councilors she believed the Chamber’s in‑house events typically take only a short time to set up and run. She also discussed community recycle day, scheduled for April 11, and said dumpster costs last year were roughly $1,000 and had been split between the city and the Masonic Lodge.
Councilors gave general assent to the fee waiver and to helping with the recycle day; staff said they would follow up with cost details and processing of any invoicing. Wortman also announced an open house at 500 East Erie on Feb. 7 and a bingo event by Azria Health at the Rand Center on Feb. 11.
