Mike Atkinson reported that one of the Police Reserve officers may be let go.
Donna Kilpatrick reported that the people in the High Point Park area are very
upset. Someone told them that the asphalt that was dumped out there was going
to pollute their water. The County Weed Control office told them that the weed
problem was the city's and that we should cut the weeds. They also feel that
since the ground was leveled it has created a drainage problem. It was stated
that this is in the County and is not in the city's jursdiction..
Donna also reported that the kids are ruining the tables in the picnic shelter
at Thomson Park. They are running their skate boards across the top and jumping
from table to table.
Gay Easton reported that Dave Michaels, Chuck Rodgers and himself went to Forsyth
to look at their garbage site. He was very impressed with their operation. He
stated that we need to take a good hard look at our garbage situation and possibly
hire an architect to help us with the transfer site.
L.D. Collins stated that he thinks we need to put our priorities into the closing
of the landfill. We need to put as many men up there as we can to get the dirt
moved, fences down and get it covered up. L.D. stated that he was also of the
opinion that if we check into it we may be able to set up a burning pit for
limbs.
Dave Michaels stated that the last day for the swimming pool will be Saturday,
August 22nd.
Dave reported that we have two of our crew members off on sick leave and our crew
is real limited right now. We need to hire some tempory help for a few weeks to
help out at the landfill.
• Chuck asked all committee chairmen to please get their minutes to Cheryll as soon
as possible after the meetings and try not to wait until the last minute.
Chuck gave a report on Jim Worthington and stated that we should know more by next
week after he has some more tests.

• Chuck reported that the building inspector from the State was here today and gave
us a rundown on our roof situation outside the city limits. We now have to classify
each one of these building as to the type of occupancy they are being used for and
once that is determined that will decide what type of roof is put back on. We
cannot just go back to the type of roof that was on there. This may cause some
added expense that we were not planning on.
The meeting was adjourned at 6:58
Respectfully submitted,
Sharon Herman
Deputy City Clerk
