Summary
Steve reported the new water tower has been filled, chlorinated and tested (results pending), crews have replaced 60 poles since January, hydrant painting is underway, and the city is short-staffed after recent departures; the aldermen received the report.
Steve, a city staff member, updated the board on multiple public-works items. He said the new water tower has been filled, chlorinated, drained, refilled and tested, and that official test results will be sent to the city the following day. "The new water tower has been filled, chlorinated, drained, refilled, tested and test results will be sent to us tomorrow," he said.
Steve also reported crews replaced 60 poles since January, are finishing hydrant painting, completed sidewalk and park concrete work, and undertook mowing to prepare industrial property for aerial footage. He noted the city is short-staffed after two departures and will recruit to fill a wastewater lead operator position.
