Summary

At the March 17 meeting a longtime resident said the town’s public-works staffing declined after a retirement and urged the council to review stormwater infrastructure and maintenance capacity.

Mary Ann Kelly, speaking during the citizen comment period, urged the Town of McIntosh to examine stormwater infrastructure and staffing levels. She said the town once had two public-works technicians but after 'Melvin' retired the town remained with only one worker, and she asked the council to consider reviewing current infrastructure maintenance needs.

Councilor Deaderick responded by agreeing on the need to maintain infrastructure and noted the University of Florida has interns who might assist; he also suggested seasonal employment as a staffing option. The exchange did not produce a formal motion or directive recorded in the minutes.
