The Union Township Board of Trustees have agreed to provide up to $7,500 in funds this year to the city to be used for street oil and rock, according to a report by alderman Bob Snidow during the regular meeting for the City of Gallatin held on Jan. 22 at City Hall. Mr. Snidow stated that the details will be formalized through a letter of agreement.
In other business at the Monday meeting, Chief of Police Jim Wycoff reported that a grant application will be submitted this week to the state requesting funds to support one-half the cost necessary to replace one of the patrol cars.
An ordinance vacating an unused portion of a street in S.T. Haynes Second Addition to the City of Gallatin was approved after first and second readings.
City Administrator Jason Helton reported on the current prices of the natural gas market, the status of permits for the peak electrical generation project, the community newsletter which is soon to be distributed, and a rough outline of the five-year plan for comments.
During comments by aldermen, Norma Griffin commented that the community newsletter, to be mailed quarterly to utility customers, should serve as a good forum to communicate with utility customers.
Cecil Akin stated that he had discussions and received complaints from residents regarding vehicle parking at auto repair shops, snow removal on the south side of the square and traffic violations at Pine and Van Buren streets.
Shonna Morrison inquired about meter reading cycles.
Bob Snidow reviewed the year to date revenues and expenditures.
Mayor Davis reported a complaint of dogs running loose.
Bills in the amount of $173,045.87 were approved for payment.
Chief Wycoff also reported that the volunteer members of the Gallatin Area Animal Welfare Alliance provided their assistance in responding to a puppy illness outbreak at the animal control facility. They arranged veterinary services at a reduced rate, arranged for the adoption of two animals, and will be helping to defray the costs of dog food. Appreciation was once again extended for the efforts of these volunteers.
The next meeting for the Gallatin Board of Aldermen was rescheduled from Feb. 12, 2001 to Feb. 15, 2001.
The above are the unapproved minutes of the regular meeting for the City of Gallatin held on Jan.
