2011 WATER QUALITY REPORT FOR
Lake City Water Supply
This report contains important information regarding the water quality in our water system. The source of our water is groundwater. Our groundwater
is drawn from the Cretaceous (Dakota Sandstone) aquifer(s).
Our water quality testing shows the following results:
The City Council of Lake City, Iowa met in
regular session on Monday, June 18, 2012 at
6:30 P.M. in the Council Chambers. Mayor
Fahan presided with the following members
present: Himes, Bellinghausen, Green and
Kramer*; absent: Ringgenberg. Department
heads/staff present: Norma DeVries, and
Bobby Rist. Pledge of Allegiance was recited.
Green stated the June 4th minutes should
have read the committee she suggested was
for long-term planning and goals. Motion by
Bellinghausen, second by Green, to approve
the consent agenda consisting of the agenda,
June 4th minutes (with noted correction),
summary of claims, May Clerk’s Report, and
Sidewalk Permit for Blair’s Artistic Touches &
Design, unanimous.
No further comments have been received
in regard to the proposed chicken ordinance.
Motion by Bellinghausen, second by Himes,
approving the second reading and waiving the
requirements for a third reading. Ayes – Himes,
Bellinghausen, Green. Administrator will check
quorum requirements for waiving readings.
(Note: suspending the third reading requires
approval by four members; therefore, the third
and final reading will be held on July 2.)
Motion by Green, second by Bellinghausen,
approving Top Rail Saddle Club putting up “No
Parking” signs on the north side of Franklin
Street for both rodeos, unanimous. They will
be offering free shuttle service from Goins Park
and the Town Square.
Motion by Bellinghausen, second by Green,
approving necessary bandstand repairs and
painting at a cost of $4,280 to be paid from the
LOST fund, unanimous.
Art Daisy was present to review the proposed
contract changes as were suggested at the
June 4th meeting. (*Kramer arrived during
discussion.) Following discussion, motion by
Bellinghausen, second by Himes, approving
the contract which is effective January 1, 2013,
unanimous.
Administrator Kelly updated council on
revisions to fees being charged by Red Cross
for learn to swim sessions. With the increase,
recommendation was made to increase
swim lessons to $20/session. Motion by
Bellinghausen, second by Green, setting the
fee at $20/session. Mayor Fahan announced
American Legion and VFW will pay the $20 fee
for all Southern Cal kids attending Level 1 &
Level 2.
Presented for council consideration was a
Building Permit for Andy and Shasta Thompson,
209 W. Jackson (back deck). After review, a
motion was made by Kramer, second by Himes,
to approve the permit subject to City Code and
Zoning requirements. Unanimous
Mayor Fahan stated alternatives need to
be sought for the senior citizens center as it
is currently not cost effective. Suggestions
included tearing out the wall and installing
accordion doors, to provide additional capacity
for large functions. In addition, the room could
be rented to the public for small groups. The A/C
will soon need replaced, however, potentially
heating and cooling could be provided from
the community building units, with additional
ductwork cheaper than purchasing and
maintaining new units.
Fahan inquired about street patching;
and brought up several situations relating to
ordinance enforcement for dangerous and
abandoned buildings, mowing and weed
nuisances, and junk cars. Residents and
business owners are reminded to make sure
address numbers are on buildings for delivery
and emergency purposes; in addition, he has
been informed that based on postal regulations
mail service could be terminated to buildings
without visible address numbers. Administrator
was instructed to send letters to business
owners needing to patch sidewalks.
Green reported Tony Macke is willing to
serve on the Long-Term Planning Committee.
Additional members are being sought.
Chief Rist informed the council that Officer
Cook has returned to duty following his surgery.
Tentatively Cook will attend the Academy’s fall
session.
There being no further business, a
motion was made by Green and seconded
by Bellinghausen to adjourn at 7:56 PM,
unanimous.
