The committee meeting was held on January 15 with the following present: Shawn Rennecker, Sandra Brown, Steve Schultz, Bob Dieker and Lance Kendrick. Steve said that Mayor Rennecker handed out Budget vs. Actual spreadsheets and this format will allow for the city's finances to be tracked easily and it will show which areas are being over or under funded.

The meeting was held on January 7 with Shawn Rennecker, Debbie Harshman, Bruce Kendall and Lance Kendrick present. The committee discussed the donation of memorial equipment from the Martin family and naming the park after Dianna Martin, but the committee feels that it would be more appropriate to have a memorial plaque placed at the playground along with a tree since we have had previous donations and memorials left to the pool park and to keep the original name for the pool park.

The discussed the current water billing program (UB-Pro). The current program is eight years old and will not be compatible with future operating systems. The new program has features that will make it compatible with other accounting software and will cost around $1300 and yearly support will be $695. New program will also be more compatible with the city's readers. Water main extensions were also discussed. Maschoff's would like to have a larger water service. A new main would be approximately $25 - $30,000 for material and could be installed in 2-3 weeks with city labor (3 workers). A contract would contain a disconnect agreement for emergency situations and a orifice plate would also be installed for a 50 gal per min max flow rate. The committee recommends offering to install the line with city labor if Maschoff's will pay for the material. Committee also discussed water main extension down old highway 36. Lance was approached by a land owner who is interested in building a home if they can get water and claims that property owners previously against the water line are now in favor of it. Cost estimates are approximately $100,000 for material. This project would include a user agreement to pay an additional fee to offset the cost of the line. Committee recommends contacting residents along old highway 36 to see who is interested in this project. The committee reported that if the old highway water line is installed that Bow Lake Golf Course is interested in running a water line in the same trench from Bainter's spring to the golf course. EPA will allow this as long as the two pipes are easily differentiable and clearly identified on permit application. Committee recommends tabling for further discussion. Lance Kendrick reported that he has been working on grant closeout form and did the final ARRA loan report. On January 14 purchase the Lister building and deed has been filed with county clerk. Has attended several meetings and ordered hazard lights for the tractor and dump truck. Discussed the water line for Maschoff's. Estimate for materials - $25,000 - $30,000. Community planning was held on January 22 and was a huge success with around 19 people attending. Ward C meeting is scheduled for February 26. Franchise agreement with Ameren will soon expire and we will receive the new agreement in the next few weeks.
