Galena council approves up to $3,500 for Y‑Bridge debris removal and sets Welcome sign ad fees
Summary
Council authorized up to $3,500 for debris removal at the Y‑Bridge, set annual ad rates for the Welcome to Galena sign at $500 per square with $250 renewals, noted completion of 7th Street repairs, and tabled several infrastructure items at the May 12 meeting.
The Galena City Council voted May 12 to authorize up to $3,500 for debris removal at the Y‑Bridge and set advertising fees for the Welcome to Galena sign.
Council member Deana Wells moved to authorize spending up to $3,500 on debris removal at the Y‑Bridge; Claire Beyer seconded and the motion carried. The transcript records the expenditure limit but does not identify the vendor or exact scope of work beyond “debris removal.”
Stephanie McIntyre moved to charge $500 per square per year for advertising on the Welcome to Galena sign, with renewals at $250; Claire Beyer seconded and the motion carried. The council voted to adopt that fee schedule during new business.
During old business the council noted that repairs on 7th Street are complete. The agenda included a list of items tabled for future consideration: park fence (pending additional bids), Springfield striping and sealing, the Blunk Road approach, sewer plant fence, spillway (too wet to proceed), and the 1‑ton work truck (still in shop).
The council also approved payment of bills and unanimously approved the April 28, 2025 meeting minutes before adjourning at 5:50 p.m.
