Public works: two water leaks repaired; driver to pay hydrant repair; DNR approves sewer permit
Summary
Public Works Director Jon Welker reported two water leaks fixed, including a hydrant break caused by a mower; the individual who hit the hydrant agreed to pay $2,810. The Council was notified that the Iowa DNR approved the city's sewer permit.
City Clerk Gwen Blass delivered routine clerk's reports while Public Works Director Jon Welker told the council that crews have repaired two water leaks. One leak followed a mower striking a fire hydrant, damaging the hydrant and requiring contract repairs; Welker said Max Smith Construction carried out the repair and the person who struck the hydrant agreed to pay the repair bill of $2,810.
Welker also reported that the Iowa Department of Natural Resources had approved the city's sewer permit, a regulatory milestone for the sewer system. The council did not take separate public action on either item during the meeting beyond accepting the reports as part of the agenda.
