LIBERTY CITY COUNCIL MEETING REPORT

 

The Liberty City Council met in regular session Monday.

 

At the top of the agenda was the city’s 3 Fire/Weather Alert sirens. The current sirens are Civil Defense sirens from the 50’s/60’s, and are becoming increasingly difficult to maintain due to the old wiring.

The Council opted to research the cost of switching to a radio control for each siren in the city.

 

The Council took time to hear from 3 members of our local 4H. Addie Davis, McKayla Hamilton, and Jaylynn Hamilton each gave a 3 minute speech on curing a country ham, in practice for competition at the Kentucky State Fair.

 

The Council approved a 2nd Reading of a Franchise Agreement with Charter Communications, pending an amendment to renewal notification from 3 years to 1 year.

 

Representatives from Rumke Santitation addressed the Council concerning their bid for garbage collection in the city.

Rumke had the highest bid to buy back the new garbage truck, just recently acquired by the city. Rumke’s is $250,000, which combined with the cost of the new garbage cans, would represent a loss of around $130,000 to the city. That cost would be off-set over time by cutting the cost of garbage can rentals. The issue was tabled for further analysis.

 

A proposed Inter-Local Agreement may provide a means to more collaboration between the City, County, and the Casey County Sheriff’s Department…

The motion was approved for the a 6 month trial project.

 

Also, Councilman, Larry Bowmer requested a Monthly Activity Report from the Liberty City Police Department.

 

The next regular meeting of the Liberty City Council is scheduled for Monday, August 12th.
