Baxter Springs council approves routine motions and records minutes decisions
Summary
At its April 22 meeting the Baxter Springs council approved the meeting agenda and minutes, passed Appropriation Ord. #3593, accepted multiple contracts and personnel items, recessed for executive session and adjourned; most votes were unanimous with a small number of abstentions.
The council took a series of routine actions: approval of the agenda and the April 8 minutes (Brumback abstained on the minutes approval), adoption of Appropriation Ordinance #3593, acceptance of mowing and paving contracts, approval of a water-plant generator purchase from Layne Electric, pay raises for two wastewater staff, hiring of a pool manager, and scheduling a public hearing on structures deemed dangerous. Most motions passed with unanimous "Yea" votes from council members present; the minutes record two abstentions (Brumback on minutes approval; Younger on the mowing contract acceptance).
The council recessed into a 15-minute executive session to consult with the city attorney on a privileged matter and returned with "No Action Taken." The meeting adjourned by motion of Shaw. These actions were recorded as passed or otherwise noted in the meeting minutes; individual contracts and personnel follow-up will be handled by the responsible city departments.
