MAYOR'S DISCUSSION I am working with a videographer on information for our
sustainability program. Meredith and Tom have gathered a great
deal of information on our recycling and trash collection. It is very
exciting because the numbers show us over double in one month
what we used to collect in one quarter. Our recycling numbers are
going up and the amount of trash is going down. We are making
a difference. I would like a report brought to the board at the end
of the year with all the numbers, it is going to be very exciting to
see our progress!
A decision needs to be made by the Board on the Harvest Ball
fundraiser. The Board shared a general consensus not to

during budget time.

BOARD OF ALDERMEN Alderman Super — What happened to the water pipe that was
COMMENTS stored up on Gateway? Has it been installed? Hoover explained
that was brought into question today and he is looking into the
situation. My other comment, on the re-certification of the levee,
no doubt will it pass its test for the City of Riverside.
Alderman Hurt — Staff worked very fast and quickly on getting the
water outage today fixed. It went out around 2 p.m. and was fixed
by 5 p.m. It was fantastic and very much appreciated.
Alderman Thatcher — Thanks for all the work everyone put into the
event this morning. I appreciate all that. Gordy tell Chief we will
get the lot fixed in the spring. Where are we at in the warrant
cycle, notice cycle with T.E. Woods? Duffy explained the situation
at this time and the Prosecuting Attorney is worlcing on this issue.
Alderman Thatcher requested the mowing be done one more time
possibly. Alderman Fuller requested a map of the common
ground be provided to the Board in the near future.
Alderman Cope — Thanks to everyone for the great job on the
event this morning, it was very well attended and it was awesome
for Riverside.
Alderman Bruns — Echo everyone's comments on the event this
morning. It would have been nice to have had some other elected
officials attend as in the past, such as Senator Bond.
Alderman Fuller— Echo the other comments and the excitement
that was felt down there today kicking off that project and the buzz
going around with those that attended. It is a very exciting time for
our city.
