14. City Administrator report, Well-Level Report
and suggestions from the suggestion box.

CA Shephard stated the Sewer Line Project by the City Park will be completed within the next two weeks. The crew had to pull off and go work in the Metroplex area and help another crew. They are way ahead of schedule and Greg Shumate, has been very pleased with the work process. Concerning the 422 project, there are three properties that are under litigation. Also, there are some water issues on Main and California Street that Jacob and Martin are looking into. Some utilities have been re-located and electric and telephone wires need to be re-routed. I am hoping that by Spring time this will all be resolved.

I had talked about the Seymour Airport being re-surfaced. TX Dot has a program where the State picks up 90% of the cost and the City 10%. As soon as I receive the information that I have requested, we will be able to start that process.

With the Texas Tech. University starting up again, my Certification Management Class will also be starting up once a month. I will be out of the office tomorrow attending my class. I would also like to take this time and express to the Council their appreciation for allowing me to attend these classes. And on behalf of all the employees, “Thank You’ll”, for all the support you’ll give us each and every time, including the pay raises and benefits provided to us.
