I want to thank Jody Hooks, Pat Self, and all the guys there for not only recommending the equipment, but for also offering to train our staff at no cost. We have been inconsistent in the past in requiring silt fencing on construction projects. met with our third party building official last week and that oversite will be corrected moving forward. We received a check from FEMA as reimbursement for Hurricane Beryl damage and cleanup. Thanks again to Cheryl for all her efforts. The Police Department began identifying non-working streetlights a few weeks ago. The Roads & Drainage Committee members are also assisting in this effort as they survey their zones. We report these outages to CenterPoint via their website. Some of the lights have already been repaired. We will bring a new version of the Employee Personnel Policy to council for approval at the first meeting in April. appreciate any feedback on the document at least a week prior sO we can incorporate any changes.
