Board reviews draft Coffeyville‑district agreement, debates termination notice and property transfer
Summary
The acting board reviewed a draft administration and maintenance agreement largely copied from a 1993 agreement; members debated whether a one‑year termination notice was appropriate and asked staff to research the transfer and liability of several lots before adopting the document, ultimately tabling final approval for the next meeting.
Board members reviewed a draft agreement between the Verdigris River Drainage District No. 1 and the City of Coffeyville that would make the city the administrator and operator of the flood-control levee and transfer existing district funds and certain property to the city.
Members discussed a one-year termination notice in the draft agreement. Some board members suggested shortening the required notice to six months or even 30 days; city representatives said 30 days would be acceptable to the city but noted the district may need more time to resolve property disposal and liability concerns. The board agreed to have counsel and staff review property ownership and liability questions before bringing the agreement back for adoption and voted to table the agreement until the next meeting.
