COUNCIL PROCEEDINGS – APRIL
14, 2008
CITY OF STACYVILLE
Mayor Harold
Isaac called the regular April meeting of the Stacyville City Council to
order at 7:30 p.m. on Monday, April 14, 2008, with council members Gervin
Halbach, Roger Brumm, Paul Halbach, and Roger Hemann present. Absent was
Walter Carter. The Mayor then welcomed all guests and called for approval
of the meeting agenda. Hemann moved to accept the agenda, seconded by Brumm
and carried. Hemann moved to accept the minutes, seconded by P. Halbach and
carried.
Terry McCarthy of
Yaggy Colby was present to discuss with the council various topics. He
stated that the new chemical pumps are installed and working fine except on
the few occasions when both wells are pumping at the same time.
Carter arrived at
this time.
McCarthy said
that the Water Improvement project is on hold until the archeological survey
is completed. The contractor, Skyline Construction, knows of this delay.
The Industrial Park project is waiting for the Bond Attorney to give his
opinion to USDA.
There are a few
small jobs concerning the water department that need attention. Carter
moved and Brumm seconded to have Mark Heimer set up the following three
jobs, which are a new water service to Andy Johnson and Doug Adams and have
a new water valve installed in the water main at the corner of North Broad
and Spring Street. All voted aye.
Steve Weis asked
the council for their help in establishing a disaster shelter for the City
of Stacyville. Numerous buildings were mentioned, but the Community Center
was the most logical choice at this time. It was thought that it would be a
good idea to get generator backup at that building. Weis will be talking to
Red Cross to get some help from them. The council thanked Weis for his
involvement in this worthwhile project.
Jerry Gerbig
asked the council for permission to have an outside band from 8:00 PM till
midnight on Saturday May 10 at his place of business. P. Halbach moved and
Hemann seconded to give Gerbig permission to have the band that night. All
voted aye. Gerbig stated that this request was for only on May 10 and if he
wanted to do it again, he would come back to the council.
The St Ansgar
School district will no longer be providing bus service from Stacyville to
the pool in St. Ansgar this summer. The council felt that providing
activities for the young kids was important. It was estimated that the
total cost to the City will be about $2600. G. Halbach moved and Carter
seconded to provide the funds for a driver and the cost of the bus to
transport kids from Stacyville to the pool in St. Ansgar this summer. All
voted aye.
There was a
request to have a flagpole at City Park. The Council stated that there was
one at the school that was not being used and gave permission to move that
flagpole to the Park.
[Financial
Report available from City Clerk.]
The next regular
meeting will be held on the second Monday, May 12, 2008 at 7:30 p.m.
Motion to adjourn at 8:55 by Hemann second by Carter and carried.

Harlan Bisbee, City Clerk
