Vote as follows: Stephens - Aye, Anthamatten - Aye, Whitehouse - Aye. A motion was made by Stephens and seconded by Whitehouse to create ARPA sub-accounts for the Town of Kellyville, M&O and Capital Outlay accounts for tracking purposes. Vote as follows: Stephens - Aye, Anthamatten - Aye, Whitehouse - Aye. Shelly Garret, Kellyville Town Manager presented the request of upgrading their current sewer system. We have made small improvements such as removing vegetation from ponds and repacking clay on side banks. We are asking to upgrade the lagoon by adding an aeration system and generators at the lift stations, we currently are not in compliance with DEQ. By adding improvements and generators for the lift stations, this will bring us into compliance with DEQ. We currently service 399 customers and this is expected to double with the three new housing additions coming to Kellyville. The additions are expected to bring 616 homes to Kellyville, we are requesting these funds to help with our growth. We have submitted a preliminary engineering report, along with preliminary quotes for project. The main lagoon was built in 1979 and our lift-stations are 20 years old. The Main station and station B are the two that have the most issues, we have proposals for five generators to be placed at the lift-stations, we will be adding the aeration system to the current lagoon to have the capacity needed for the future growth. We have included our sewer rates that went into effect in February, along with the resolution adopted by the town. Stephens asked if Barbara Albritton, INCOG Representative was good with the request and if there was anything additional needed. Albritton stated no, and she is good with request. Stephens stated now the request has been approved, it will be subject to all County Purchasing Procedures, as well as County Bidding procedures. Tandra McClellan, Payroll Clerk spoke briefly to the Board about creating sub-accounts to better track individual projects. This would be much like the previous process and would be more efficient in providing project reports per entity. Transfer of funds will be added to a future agenda.
Item #13: Motion was made by Whitehouse and seconded by Anthamatten to let for Bid#22-10 Used Railroad Tank Cars for Creek County to be opened 5-9-22.
