City Manager Report

CITY MANAGERS REPORT Report Period December 11, 2020 - January 6, 2020 Ginger Allen, City Manager Hello Everyone, There are a lot of items in this months’ City Manager Report. Please take time and familiarize yourself with the content of this report. By doing so, we can save a lot of time during the council meeting. If you have questions about the report you are more than welcome to call me or send me an email and we can discuss your questions at any time, you do not have to wait until the council meeting. Thank you all and I will see you on Zoom!! Covid-19 Relief Funds: The City’s Coronavirus Relief Fund Grant Application was receipted in on December 28, 2020. If the grant application is approved the City will receive $50,000.00 in Corona Relief Funding. The City was not told when we would hear back about the allocation of funds. City Hall Hours: As of Monday, January 11, 2021, City Hall entrance will reopen to the general public and staff will resume regular work hours of Monday – Thursday’s 7:30 – 5:00 p.m. and Fridays, 7:30 – 12:00 noon. The Library will remain closed to the public with Curb-side services only. Due to the winter weather causing, at times, extreme conditions to those who use the walk up window, I feel it’s best to allow people to enter into City Hall. All persons entering City Hall will have to stay outside of the administrative office space, they will be offered the use of hand sanitizers, with social distancing and face masks required. Citizens will still have the ability to conduct business with city staff via, phone, email, on-line payments, drop box correspondence, U.S. mail and personal meeting by appointment only. Street Sweeping: I have not forgotten about placing the official name on the street sweeper. As soon as we get some warmer/dryer weather we will place the name strips on the sweeper.
