The Community Sign Application has also been revised to include these resources. Eligible users will now be required to submit a Community Event Promotion Application upon request for their message to be featured in any of the City's community event promotion resources. Attached to this Weekly Update is the Complete Community Event Promotion and Facility Use Rental Policy and Community Event Promotion Application. Public Works Update. It's been a pretty calm week for us in public works. We continue to try to scrape ice off the roads when the weather cooperates. The roads have cleared enough that we are able to do some pothole patching as needed. We had to say good bye to our 1995 Case wheel loader this week. The transmission went out and the repair bill would be approximately $25,000.00. With the loader being 20 years old and over 9000 hours of service, it's just not practicable to repair. Thanks to the finance department putting together a 3 year equipment replacement schedule, we are able to move up the purchase of a replacement that was scheduled for 2016. We are expecting delivery sometime between January and March 2015. This will affect our snowplowing somewhat, because the loader is used to plow a route. We added a new plow route this winter, but with the loss of the loader, we will have to revert back to last year's schedule. Rinks are scheduled to be open for the season (both locations), December 12t at 3:30 PM. However, now the forecast is to be quite warm, with the possibility of drizzle for Sunday, so they may not be open until Monday at 3:30. Weather depending as they say... If the lights are on after dark, then the warming house is open. The utility department is working on building an "addition" in pump house #1. They are building a separate room for the chemicals in an attempt to help cut down on the corrosion caused by the fluoride fumes.
