ITEM #1 – CONSENT AGENDA
City Manager Ted Meadows reported on the progress on the repairs to the Caryonah dam. Bids will be received in early November, which will cover the removal of considerable amounts of dirt and rebuild the damaged area. The budget amendment is to cover an early estimate including the pumping and engineering now underway, but the repairs are expected to cost considerably more. Councilman Wyatt suggested a discussion on buying the land and not repairing the dam. Mr. Meadows and City Attorney Chadwell indicated that there could be substantial environmental impacts and reclamation costs under that scenario. Repairs will probably be the most economical alternative.
A motion was made by Councilman Wyatt, seconded by Councilman Kerley, that all items on the consent agenda be approved as follows:
a) 3rd Reading of Ordinance amending the FY09-10 budget by $6,000 for TML Safety grant
b) 3rd Reading of Ordinance amending the FY09-10 budget by $50,000 for Hwy. 127S utility relocation project
c) 3rd Reading of Ordinance amending the FY09-10 budget by $250,000 for Caryonah dam repairs
d) 2nd Reading of Ordinance amending the FY09-10 budget by $10,000 for air show
e) 2nd Reading of Ordinance authorizing a water harvesting agreement with the Lake Tansi Village POA
Vote: Motion carried by unanimous roll call vote (summary: Yes = 5). Yes: Councilman Boyd Wyatt, Sr., Councilman Carl Duer, Councilman Jesse Kerley, Mayor J. H. Graham, III, Mayor Pro-Tem Earl Dean.
With no further business, the meeting was adjourned at 9:09 a.m.
