a Councilman McNeill addressed a complaint concerning the
water problem the citizens had last: week, Thursday.
Discussion.
Mayor Armstrong did state that the problem was not caused
by city employees; the contractors were working on the tanks,
turned the pumps off and did not advise anyone. The City
does not have an emergency system that would alert anyone
that the pumps were off. The well on the other side which
was feeding both sides of town went dry. The well was
already getting low and the citizens just simply drained the
tank. It was not until this that the city employees were
alerted to the problem.
Mayor Armstrong did state that one thing they will look at
this next budget year. Council will look into a computer
system to alert the City when something goes wrong with the
wells.
