Columbia City Council Special Meeting 13 Feb 2018 - Report
Click on headline for complete story By Ed Waggener The Columbia City Council, in a very brief Special Called Meeting Tuesday, February 13, 2018, at 5:15pmCT, quickly approved three recommendations from Mayor Curtis Hardwick which could, if carried through, improve economic development prospects, tourism and recreation, and will facilitate the summer meals project at the Farmers Market on the Square. Council approves application for Workforce Study Grant Mayor Hardwick asked permission to apply for a Work Force Study Grant for the area. He said that this grant requires no local funds if received. Mayor Hardwick said that finding workers has been an increasing difficulty for employers, and he feels data received from this study could really help. He said he is hoping the study will show the number of commuting workers who leave the county each day as well as the number who drive to Columbia for work here. On a motion by Councilor Craig Dean, with a second by Linda Waggener, and Councilors Craig Lasley, Ronald Rogers, Pam Hoots, and Mark Harris, the authority was given to Mayor Hardwick to proceed. Mayor seeking funds for kayaking facilities at old water plant It's contingent on the Columbia Adair Utilities District (CAUD) returning some of the old water plant on Waterworks Street to the city, but Mayor Hardwick received authorization from the Council to proceed with an application for a grant for restrooms and a parking lot for the Proposed Paddle Trails for Kayaking. He told the Council that the Grant would be a 20% matching one, and that it would be contingent on negotiations with CAUD for the property. On a motion by Councilor Rogers, and a second by Councilor Mark Harris, the Council unanimously authorized Mayor Hardwick to proceed. Mayor Hardwick said that obtaining the transfer from CAUD would be a requisite first step. In answer to questions about costs for the improvement, Mayor Hardwick said he was unsure, but that the 20% matching city contribution can come from in-kind work, and that the city could do some of it and that he is working with a donor and that he anticipates no necessity to use cash to complete the project. City approves installation of a pre-fab building on FM2 lot The council unanimously approved a request from Lois Cunningham, who now heads the free summer meals project each Saturday during the Farmers Market on The Square season, to permanently place a 10 x 10 prefabricated building on the backside of the lot. The council voted to let Mayor Hardwick use his discretion as to the suitability of the structure, which he said was being donated for the popular program. The vote to proceed was unanimous, on a motion by Councilor Rogers and a second by Councilor Mark Harris. Brief meeting. Light attendance The meeting was concluded in less than five minutes. The Mayor, All Council Members, City Attorney Dustin Warren, City Police Chief Jason Cross, and representatives of the media were in attendance.
