SANITARY DISTRICT
Regular
Meeting of the Board of Directors
January
12, 2023
The
regular meeting of the Board of Directors of the Salida Sanitary District was
called to order by President Gary Horton at 6:00 p.m. in the Salida Sanitary
District Boardroom. Other Directors
present were Gary Dew, Lana Moore, Donna Murphy, and Brad Johnson. Others present were Attorney Stewart W.
James, District Manager/Engineer Antonio Tovar, and Secretary Linda Walker.
Members
of the public were invited to address the Board, but no comments were made.
The
minutes of the previous regular meeting held December 8, 2022 were unanimously
approved as submitted.
Bills
of the District totaling $130,586.59 were presented for payment. A motion was made by Director Moore, and
seconded by Director Murphy, and on vote unanimously carried to adopt
Resolution No. 1755, “Resolution Authorizing Payment of Bills.”
District
Manager-Engineer Antonio Tovar reported the following:
1.
Construction
bids were opened for the Covert Liftstation Upgrades Project on January 12,
2023. The District received 2 bids.
2.
In
late December, the sewer collection system experienced an overflow in the
vicinity of Kiernan Road and Toomes Road.
The problem was traced to fats, oils, and grease solidifying and
clogging a sewer main. An estimated
amount of 6-10 gallons were spilled and recovered. Crews have followed-up with inspections and
no further problems have been found.
Resolution
Number 1754, “Resolution Establishing Spending Limit For District
Manager-Engineer” was reviewed by the Board. After some discussion, it was
determined that no amendments are necessary to Resolution Number 1754.
Attorney
James expressed his thoughts on the qualifications candidates for his
replacement should possess. He suggests
the candidates should have some experience with Special Districts similar to
Salida Sanitary District. Director
Murphy moved to appoint Stewart James, Antonio Tovar, and Linda Walker to a
committee, for finding a new attorney for Salida Sanitary District. The motion was seconded by Director Moore,
and on vote unanimously carried.
As
there was no further business, the meeting was adjourned.
