City Council meets
The third time was a charm for the Cottonwood City Council as they held their September meeting Monday, Sept. 21 after two attempts where they couldn’t get a quorum. Suddenlink is in the process of selling their cable business to Altice S.A. and requested a change in the Cottonwood franchise pending approval of the sale. The request was approved by the council. A catering permit was approved for Wolftrack Brewing for an event they have scheduled on October 10. Bad debt writeoffs were approved for 2 utility and 2 miscellaneous bills totaling $590.01. In the reports, Pat Holthaus reported there were 8.3 million gallons of water pumped and 7.9 million sold for a loss of 4.8%. There was no report from the sewer department. Jack Duman reported the rock left alongside East Street after the water line work will be used to level up the street. He is also working on a grant that would resurface Broadway and 2nd South Streets and the railroad crossing. Shelli Schumacher reported the hall remodeling work should start in early October. Ron Grant had no sewer report but reported the fire department had 3 calls, 1 in town and 2 out of town. They also provided assistance of an engine and a crew to both Kamiah and Riggins on separate occasions when those places put out calls for help to area fire agencies. Also he reported the extrication tools have been ordered that were funded by a grant. The next regular meeting of the Council will be Tuesday, Oct. 13 at 7 p.m. They will meet on Tuesday due to the Columbus Day holiday on their regular meeting day. |
