Council seeks MDNR review of pretreatment changes, approves new turf equipment purchases
Summary
Nevada's City Council endorsed proposed Industrial Pretreatment Program amendments for submission to the Missouri Department of Natural Resources and unanimously accepted bids for two turf maintenance machines from Professional Turf Products L.P.
The Nevada, Missouri, City Council on July 7 approved a resolution to endorse proposed amendments to the city’s Industrial Pretreatment Program and submit those changes to the Missouri Department of Natural Resources (MDNR) for review.
Councilperson Amber Barker moved to accept Resolution No. 1938, which endorses proposed changes to Chapter 28 of the city code and repeals and replaces specified sections of Ordinance No. 8715 to update the local pretreatment program; Councilperson Miranda Selby seconded and the motion passed by roll call (Aye: Barker, Branham, Miles, Miller, Selby). The resolution directs staff to forward the proposed revisions to MDNR for its review and approval.
The council also accepted two procurement bids for grounds‑maintenance equipment. Resolution No. 1939 authorized payment to Professional Turf Products L.P., of Lenexa, Kansas, for a Toro Procore 648S; Resolution No. 1940 authorized payment to the same vendor for a Groundsmaster 3500D. Both resolutions were moved and seconded in council and passed unanimously. The minutes record these purchases as acceptance of the bids and authorization of payment; specific purchase amounts were not listed in the minutes.
Why this matters: industrial pretreatment program updates change local wastewater permitting and compliance processes and require state review; the equipment purchases support parks and grounds maintenance operations.
Next steps: staff will submit the pretreatment amendments to MDNR for its approval; procurement paperwork will proceed for the approved equipment purchases.
