1) Water Plant: We broke ground and cleared off most of where the new water plant will go. Waiting on OG&E to move one power pole so we can finish clearing off the location.
2) We will be looking to close the valves to the intake early November to the lake so we can TV camera the line under the lake dam that comes from the intake.
3) We are rebuilding the tornado siren that came off the roof of the county courthouse. We are looking to put it back around the Senior Citizen building.
4) Dog Pound. The two ladies that spoke to the council last month has done an awesome job on getting all of the animals adopted out. We hope that they can continue their success. We have looked at getting them the whole harmless agreement so that anyone that goes in there will be ok by our insurance. They are looking at doing separate runs and putting heaters in there for the winter.
5) Sorghum Day is coming up so we are concentrating on entrances of town and around main street. Last night’s Sorghum Banquet went really well and we commend the committee for all their hard work for the sorghum day banquet.

– October 14th is Columbus Day and offices will be closed.
