PRESENTATION
BY POLICE CHIEF HUDSON
Chief Hudson said Ron Marshall had been a reserve police officer since
before the chief joined the force in 1993.
He said it is often difficult to get reserve officers to work, but
Officer Marshall had always been available when needed. He never missed working Christmas on the
River and 4th of July. Now
he has retired, but has offered to continue helping in a police auxiliary
capacity. The chief reported that
Police Clerk Cindy Liberty had emergency surgery the night before, and Mr.
Marshall would be the “Acting Cindy” some
of the time until Mrs. Liberty’s return to work. He noted that Mr. Marshall’s assistance had
saved the city thousands and thousands of dollars over the years.
At that time the chief officially retired Officer Marshall’s badge,
#611. He returned it to Mr. Marshall
mounted on a walnut plaque, and thanked him for eight years of dedicated
service. All present joined in a round
of applause for Mr. Marshall.
BOY
SCOUTS
The mayor asked the Scouts to come to the podium. Jay Mansheim and Zac Hummel said they were
working on two badges – Communications and Citizens in the Community. The mayor explained the structure of a
Missouri fourth-class city to them.
MIDWEST
EVEREST
Mr. Fleming said they have been meeting with City staff and officials,
and felt it was a great city to work with.
Midwest Everest is seeking a franchise to serve Parkville residents with
cable TV and telecommunications, including long-distance telephone
service. Mr. Hawver distributed copies
of the draft of the franchise agreement.
It is a modification of a model agreement worked out over a period of
almost a year by the Mid America Regional Council. Its content is similar to provisions in the City’s cable TV
franchise agreement with Time Warner.
Midwest Everest’s service includes three or four different levels of
Internet availability, cable TV, video on demand, phone service (digital), and
long-distance rates of 6.5 cents per minute all the time. Mr. Fleming said by
bundling services the customer can get a lower cost than with all the present
services he is getting from various companies.
Technical aspects of Midwest’s service were discussed. Mr. Fleming said they would be laying new fiber
optic cable throughout the city. They
have franchises with Kansas cities Lenexa, Olathe, Merriam, and Mission, and in
Missouri with Kansas City, Gladstone, and Independence. If franchised in Parkville, they would start
construction sometime in the latter part of this year. They would probably start operating in
2002. There is a lot of upgrading going
on and a shortage of fiber optic cable.
New plants are being built to meet the demand.
Mayor Quitmeier asked if the DSL units from the phone company are fiber
optic. Mr. Fleming said no, unless they
are underground. DSL is an always-on
service, and Midwest Everest is an always-on service.
Mr. Hawver said the ordinance will be considered on February 20th. He and the mayor would like to have up to
$1,000 approved for legal review by the city attorney. He thanked Mayor Quitmeier and Aldermen
Atkinson and David McCoy for sitting in on the two-hour meeting with Everest
representatives. The mayor added that
the MARC document didn’t quite work out for us, and Mr. Fleming said all cities
are modifying the MARC document or using an entirely different one. Mr. Hawver said the modifications we have
made include “cable interrupt,” by
which City officials can interrupt a cable program on the Midwest Everest
system in case of emergency. We will be
able to do that right from City Hall.
PLAT
APPROVAL, THE NATIONAL
Mr. Borchers said the Planning Commission recommended approval of all
four plats at its last meeting. Mr. Hawver explained the changes; conditions
imposed upon the recommended approval were noted in the ordinances. It was noted the changes generally resulted
in larger lots.

MAYOR’S
REPORT
Mayor Quitmeier reviewed his activities since the last meeting:
·
He attended a
Missouri Municipal League dinner meeting in Excelsior Springs along with
Alderman Arnold, City Administrator Hawver, and City Clerk Barbara Lance.
·
He attended a Platte
County Land Use Plan meeting. It was a
very interesting and very productive meeting, and he encouraged everyone in the
community to attend those meetings.
Also, he noted, this group would have a website available.
·
He attended the
dedication of the Breckon Sports Center at Park University. He encouraged residents to view this new
facility.
·
He attended the
recognition of the Gold Star status awarded to Graden Elementary School. It is one of the best grade schools in
Missouri. Principal Mike Otto is also
up for state and national recognition.
The mayor said Mr. Otto is “an absolutely super principal.” He added that within a week of opening day
Mr. Otto knew every student’s name. He
has lunch with them, plays with them and yet commands their respect. The kids don’t want to disappoint him. He is a tremendous role model. He noted that Aldermen McCoy and Friedman
were also there.
Mr. Friedman said recently he was out of town
and saw a nationwide news program which had a 15-minute spread on Graden
School. It was a real overview of
programs they have, specifically their time-out, or recovery, room. It has become a model for many schools. The
mayor said we have a wonderful school system, second to none.
·
He attended a
meeting with the Midwest Everest people.
·
He attended the
Governor’s Conference on Highway Safety in Jefferson City, and lobbied for
guard rails on I-70, where the Park University coach and two students were
killed in November. His presentation
was seen and acknowledged by the governor, the Missouri Highway Patrol, the
American Automobile Association, and the State Legislature. He gave them all literature on the
subject.
On that subject, he said on I-435 there were
14 deaths in 1988-1989 from crossover accidents (motorists crossing over the
median into oncoming traffic). Guard
rails were installed, and in 2000 there were no deaths. The guard rails do have to be maintained at
a cost of $300,000 annually, and the reason is that cars do hit them. Dr. Don Breckon, retiring president of Park
University, and the mayor will continue to pursue this matter.
Mayor Quitmeier also referred to the move to
reduce the legal limit of alcohol in the blood to .08, in return for which some
lawmakers wanted to take out the open container law. They are reconsidering because, he said, they realized they would
then have to spend 2% of their budget on highway safety.
The mayor reported that the Department of Conservation is putting
trails into the water sheds at the Lakeview Nature Sanctuary in Swope Park.
Park University has selected a new president; it is a woman from
Texas. No formal announcement has been
made yet.
The mayor asked the city clerk to report on Representative Meg
Harding’s February Town Hall meeting.
Mrs. Lance reported that it will be held in the Train Depot from 9-11:30
a.m. Saturday, February 17th.
Coffee and doughnuts will be available.
Ms. Harding will bring representatives from various agencies which can
help people with high gas bills, and she suggested people who need help bring
their gas bills to the meeting; they will be able to meet one-on-one with these
representatives. Ms. Harding will also
report on pending legislation and ask for opinions and questions from those
present.
Mayor Quitmeier asked aldermen to give their ideas for awards for the
March 24th banquet to Barbara Lance as soon as possible.
PUBLIC
HEARING ON VACATING PORTIONS OF 7th, 8th, and 11th
STREETS
The public hearing commenced at 8:07 p.m. Mr. Hawver showed an old lot and block map which included stubs
of 7th, 8th and 11th Streets as they were
platted east of East Street. These
streets, which are part of Park University’s athletic field, were never opened
as streets, and President Breckon petitioned that they be vacated. If vacated the streets would revert to the
landowner on each side, which in all cases is Park University. No-one was present to speak for or against
these vacations.
The public hearing concluded at 8:10 p.m.
CITY
ADMINISTRATOR’S REPORT
RECYCLING AND SOLID WASTE. Mr.
Hawver said the committee met that morning and proposed closing the facility
after the first weekend in March. This
decision was reached not just because Park University didn’t want the center to
be on their campus any more. That is
only one of the factors. The numbers
were down; grants were drying up; costs were up ($9,000 budgeted for this
year); curbside recycling is available; we have been fulfilling a need more
regional than municipal (probably less than $15% of users are actually
residents); and the health of Director Gloria Hickman is also a factor. It requires that she give up this
responsibility. Discussion ensued on
the remarkable contribution she has made in this area.
Riss Lake homeowners now enjoy curbside recycling, contracting with
Platte Valley, recently purchased by Deffenbaugh.
It is time to consider citywide trash hauling, Mr. Hawver said, and he
asked the Board’s approval to send a letter to all trash haulers operating in
Parkville notifying them that we are considering that. State law requires that we give them a
two-year notice.
ALDERMAN DAVID McCOY MOVED TO AUTHORIZE THE DELIVERY OF A LETTER OF
NOTIFICATION TO TRASH HAULERS; ALDERMAN ATKINSON SECONDED; ALL AYE; MOTION
CARRIED.
March 3-4 will be the last days the recycling center will be open. Mayor Quitmeier said alternatives are the
centers at Metro North, Antioch Center, and curbside recycling. Also, he said, Graden Elementary School at
the northwest corner of Highways 9 and 45 takes all kinds of paper. Collection days and times of these
facilities will be researched and posted on Channel 2.
MISSOURI AMERICAN WATER COMPANY SEWER BILLING
AND PAYMENT COLLECTION CONTRACTS:
The city attorney is still waiting to hear from the water company’s
attorney about some questions in these agreements. Mr. Hawver hoped to have them ready for consideration at the next
meeting.
CONTRACT WITH ADAMS DUKE FOR 2000 AUDIT. Mr.
Hawver said there was an ordinance ready to sign an agreement with Adams Duke.
Mr. Ferguson asked if the City is not required to get bids. It was agreed it is. Mr. Duke has also proposed to offer
consultation services with city staff and the Audit Committee for a cost not to
exceed $1,700 to discuss concerns he brought up in the last few audits. Mr. Atkinson asked if that’s something the
Audit Committee should look at? He said
Mr. Duke does audits for only two cities, and the other one is smaller than
Parkville. He thought the Board might
be able to find someone with more experience.
Mr. Ferguson said both agreements (for the audit and for consulting)
should be considered at the same time.
Mr. Hawver said he had a meeting with Mr. Duke, Treasurer Steve Berg,
and Dave McCoy; Mr. Duke went over recommendations and gave Steve Berg some
recommendations. It was just a meeting
with staff. Mr. Ferguson and Mayor
Quitmeier said they were not aware of it.
Mr. Hawver said Mr. Duke talked pretty much to Mr. Berg, who has already
started working on his recommendations.
Mr. David McCoy said they are waiting for Mr. Hawver to tell them when
they are meeting again and if and when Mr. Duke’s suggestions will be
implemented. Mr. Hawver said the will
probably meet about a month from now.
He will ask Mr. Berg if he has any problems going to an accrual
accounting basis. At that point the
committee should meet with him (Mr. Berg), and possibly Larry Duke as
well. Mr. David McCoy asked him to set
a deadline. Mr. Hawver said he would
feel more comfortable doing that after talking with Mr. Berg. Mr. Hawver will get back with them (Audit
Committee members).
STREET PRESERVATION PLAN. Mr.
Hawver said this has been prepared by Mr. Rupp and Mr. Schank, who spent a lot
of time in the field measuring and developing a priority system for
streets. He thinks the Board would like
to be more a part of that process at budget time. The recently apparent deterioration of Main Street decided them
to move it up on the priority scale, moving the Parkville Heights Subdivision
to #2.
Mr. Ferguson asked if we evaluate the new streets in subdivisions to
make sure the road bed preparation is good, etc.? Some streets last forever and some fall apart. Melody Lane/Drive was put in 32 years ago,
and only the circle has been overlaid since then. Mr. Hawver said he thought they would all learn more about
streets in this process. One factor is
truck traffic. Concrete trucks run over
every street in Riss Lake. In The
National we have an agreement that their engineers will provide us with on-site
inspections and reports on every street before and after it is paved. The cost is borne by the developer. Mr. Ferguson said it is more economical to
put a street in right in the beginning.
Mr. Poole asked if we are looking at those streets? Mr. Rupp said right now we have a better
system than we have ever had. He is the
primary person, and Alan Schank is going to move into that position with
him. The staff of five or six people is
also involved. Some of the problems
with streets include different types of soil - some contribute to
deterioration. There are different
problems in every area of the city.
Mr. Hawver asked if the Board agreed they could make that substitution
(upper Main Street rather than Parkville Heights). There was no objection.
Mr. Atkinson commended Mr. Rupp and Mr. Schank for all the work they
put in on this. Mr. Rupp said they will
do a final priority list, including side streets. Some factors include the volume of traffic, number of houses on
the street, etc. Mayor Quitmeier said
there are a lot of street improvements needed – Bell Road, Walnut Street, Elm
Street, Hamilton Street, etc. West
Street was not intended to be an arterial street, but it has become one. We have aging infrastructure all over the
city.
Mr. Friedman said slurry seal is a nasty mess. We have done slurry seal al over the
city. Is there an alternative? Mr. Rupp said not to his knowledge in a
sealing capacity. Something similar can
be used in combination with an asphalt lay down machine. Concrete repairs are very expensive. Those streets west of Main Street - the only
thing that could work at this point in time is concrete. Slurry seal would seal the cracks. Mr. Friedman said they are the oldest
streets in town, and they are in terrible shape. Mr. Rupp said the grade needs to be adjusted on some. Mayor Quitmeier said slurry seal ends up so
rough. Mr. Friedman added that it fills
up storm sewers.
MARCIT. Mr. Hawver said MARCIT
requirements for our safety program have grown and grown. We have an exceptional safety program. One of the requirements we are mandated to
fulfill by the end of February is for elected officials to meet with our city
attorney to go over public liability issues.
He suggested that could be done before the next Board meeting at 6:30
p.m. There is a financial incentive to
comply.
SOUTHERN PLATTE FIRE PROTECTION DISTRICT. Mr.
Hawver said the SPFPD will host an open house for the Board of Aldermen to show
the new building. Chief Richard
Carrizzo called to arrange it. It will
be Saturday, February 24th, at 9 a.m.
COMMITTEE
REPORTS
COMMUNITY CENTER: No report.
FINANCIAL REPORT: Not at this meeting.
MAIN STREET/CHAMBER OF COMMERCE: Mrs. Arnold said this Saturday there will
be a book-signing at the Tattered Page.
Diana Lambdin Meyers and Gene Roberts wrote a science fiction
novel. Some merchants will have
sidewalk sales. She thanked Jan Gunn of
Home Embellishments – Main Street rented from her for over a year before the
office was moved to the Train Depot.
She said Mrs. Gunn is always there when they need help.
NATURE SANCTUARY: No report.
PARK COMMITTEE: Mr. Poole said they met January 22nd. They will be submitting a long-range plan to
the Board of Aldermen for approval. The
committee will tour the other parks in February. It was also suggested a parks brochure be drawn up. The Park Committee needs a copy of the
Sunshine Law. Mr. Hawver will order
more copies from the Attorney-General’s office.
PARKVILLE JUNIOR GOVERNMENT: Mr. Atkinson said he and Mrs. Lance met
with Mrs. Lucas and Mrs. Bowman, 4th-grade teachers at Graden
School, last week. We will again have
two sessions, with two classes participating in each session. Mr. Friedman, Mr. David McCoy, and Mrs.
Arnold said they would help. He will
ask the judge to participate. It was
decided to spend a lesser amount of time upstairs and move the children
downstairs early in the session so more time could be spent on passing a law,
enforcing it and showing the court process.
He asked anyone who wants to participate to contact him or Mrs. Lance.
PLANNING & ZONING: Mr. Ferguson said that had been pretty well
covered.
RECYCLING AND SOLID WASTE: Mr. Friedman said another weekend went very
smoothly. The volume was down, but it
has traditionally been down in February.
TRAIN DEPOT: No report.
TREE BOARD: No report.
