Ozawkie schedules park-restroom opening, hydrant flow tests and street repairs
Summary
Council received updates that a new airplane teeter-totter will be installed and park restrooms will open April 1; street crack-sealing and two repair spots (Sioux and proposed Vista View addition) were discussed; Fire Department will flow-test hydrants in two months with an ISO audit in three years.
The council's reports section included several operations updates: a new airplane teeter-totter has been assembled and was scheduled for installation the next day; park restrooms are slated to open April 1. Maintenance supervisor Mark Tenpenny told the mayor a parking issue at 102 Central that affected snow removal has been resolved and that mowing will start in roughly three weeks, with last year's work requiring three workers.
On streets, council members noted cracks appearing with warming weather and said a previously approved quote covers a repair on Sioux; the mayor asked to add an additional spot on Vista View to that contract. The Utilities/Fire Department will flow-test hydrants within the next two months and then spray-painted lid tops to show flow amounts; an ISO audit is expected in three years and the department currently holds the best rating available.
These operational items were presented as routine updates; no separate council motions beyond the previously recorded purchases and approvals were logged in the minutes for these items.
