Mayor Heater made an announcement that we will no longer be live streaming our city council meetings. It was brought to her attention that with our spotty internet connections we could be in violation of open meeting laws. Because we do not have control of the internet, she has decided to stop live Facebook streaming. We will have a voice recording kept on file at city hall in the event someone needs the information.

Monthly Maintenance Report-Water Plant usage is still up and is requiring the guys to work two shifts. An electronic flow control valve failed and a new one was ordered and installed. Park is greening back up after the reseeding. All the trees have been trimmed and the grass is being mowed weekly. With the recent wet weather, the streets department is having to grade the alley ways again. They are spot spraying weeds and providing sandbags to residents that were affected by the recent flash flooding. Public works will begin trimming trees around the city with the bucket truck. A study was done around the city of Kamiah to determine if the city is providing adequate water pressure to its residents. By law the city is required to provide 40 PSI to utility customers, all residents water delivery PSI exceeds this requirement. If you would like a copy of this report, you can pick one up at City Hall.
