BUSINESS LICENSE APPLICATION

 

Council reviewed a business license application from Randy Huber for Huco Chemical.  After review and discussion, a motion was made by Councilman Woolstenhulme to approve this application.  Motion seconded by Councilman L. Yack.  Motion carried unanimously.

 

OUT-OF-CITY WATER EXTENSION REQUEST

 

Mr. Chad Doty had come to Council previously requesting an out-of-city water connection that was approved.  However, there was a misunderstanding on the location of the existing water line.  Mr. Doty needs the line extended to service five additional lots.  Mr. Doty expressed willingness to purchase the five connections.  Mr. Doty has been told that at this time Roosevelt crews cannot put in this waterline because other projects have been scheduled.  However, Roosevelt City would agree to supply the materials and Mr. Doty would dig the trench and provide the manpower to install the water pipeline with inspection and acceptance by Roosevelt City.  After discussion, Mayor Cowan recommended determining the exact location of the line and costs to construct the line prior to acceptance and approval by Council.

 

OUT-OF-CITY WATER CONNECTION REQUEST

 

TeAnn Murdock, representing Brian Taylor, came before Council seeking permission to purchase an out-of-city water connection to be located close to Ostler’s Corner on Mr. Taylor’s property.  This would require a line to be put under the road.  There is some question as to the best size because Mr. Taylor is considering additional development of his property at a future time, although it is unknown when that would be.  There is also some question as to the appropriate line size.  After discussion, a motion was made by Councilman Ryan to approve water service contingent on working out the details with our Water Department and Mr. Taylor.  Motion seconded by Councilman Coleman.  Motion carried unanimously.

 

SKATE PARK

 

Leslie Larsen came before Council asking if Council would consider the possibility of changing the location of the skate park from property by Constitution Park to the Old Park due to the old Park’s central location.  Council directed Leslie to work with Linden Dye to see if there is room at the Old Park for this facility.  It will take approximately 100 x 100 feet for the concrete pad.  Leslie will follow up and come before Council with a report of her findings at which time Council can make a determination of the best location for the skate park.

 

GOLF COURSE GOLF RAKER

 

Cole Hancock came before Council to report on the research done regarding a leaf raker and vacuum for the golf course.  Cole stated the machine would be pulled behind a tractor and would cost $19,500.00.  It would increase the use of the course during the fall which would create improved revenue.  However, this equipment was not included in the city budget for FY 2006-07.  Council directed that a demonstration be scheduled for the latter part of September so Council can see how well it works after which they will make a decision. 

 

PERMANENT COMMUNITY IMPACT BOARD

MEETING IN ROOSEVELT

 

City Manager Brad Hancock reported that the PCIB will arrive tomorrow with the tour of our area to begin at 10:00 a.m.  Mayor and Council may attend any of the scheduled events and were encouraged to do so.
