CALL TO ORDER:
DECLARATION OF A QUORUM
Roll was called with four Commissioners present and a quorum was declared.
AGENDA ITEM NO. 1: Discussion, consideration and possible action on a Resolution to Access FEMA/Corps of Engineer Emergency Debris Removal Contract through Oklahoma Department of Emergency Management.
City Manager Brian McDougal and Emergency Management Director Don Lynch reported that this agenda item was added when there was a possibility we would be able to access a FEMA/Corp of Engineers contract to assist with debris removal. Since this debris removal is a high priority, we needed to act quickly. There has been some issue with the State Emergency Management Office and the Federal contract, so that possibility is not available at this time.
Oklahoma Department of Transportation has offered another option. Director Michael Patterson reported ODOT has vehicles and manpower available to start on removal of storm debris immediately. They had gathered to assist in Moore, Oklahoma, but utilities were still an issue there. Since we were a full 24 hours ahead of Moore on the storm arrival and utility clearance, the ODOT crews can start here now.
There will be a joint meeting with City and County officials this afternoon to coordinate efforts of debris removal. The City Manager will determine where the removal will start after the meeting later today.
Fire Chief David Short reported on the burning of debris from the storm. He advised a burning permit will still be required but there will be no fee for this permit to burn storm debris. The requirement for burning must follow the set guidelines. Department of Environmental Quality requires only tree limbs or trees be burned. No building debris burning will be allowed. Don Lynch advised there is a Fact Sheet from DEQ available for information on burning household products.
AGENDA ITEM NO. 2: Discussion, consideration and possible on a Resolution authorizing City Manager to declare items surplus and dispose of same.
James Bryce, Operations Manager and Parks Director, reported on damages at Shawnee Twin Lakes. There was extensive damage to docks, fishing structures and ramps. The maintenance building was totally destroyed and is gone. A boat, motor and trailer as well as other equipment is either destroyed or damaged. Mr. Bryce has met with the insurance claims adjuster and received permission to get rid of items that have no value other than scrap metal.
City Attorney Mary Ann Karns has presented a resolution declaring certain items surplus and language allowing for additional items to be disposed of as scrap when warranted.
Resolution No. 6447 was introduced.
A RESOLUTION DECLARING CERTAIN ITEMS SURPLUS, WAIVING POLICIES AND ORDINANCES RELATING TO DISPOSAL OF CITY PROPERTY AND AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER TO DISPOSE OF SUCH ITEMS.
A motion was made by Vice-Mayor Harrod, seconded by Commissioner Agee, to approve a resolution authorizing City Manager to declare items surplus and dispose of same. Motion carried 4-0.
AYE: Harrod, Agee, Mainord, Winterringer
NAY: None
Resolution No. 6447 was adopted by the City Commission.
AGENDA ITEM NO. 2: ADJOURNMENT
There being no further business to come before the meeting, the meeting was adjourned by the power of the Chair. (12:30 p.m.)
