July 8, 2008 Chris Morris briefed Council on updates required to bring the existing flood plain ordinance into compliance with updated National Flood Insurance Program regulations. No changes have been made to the city's flood plain maps and no substantial revisions have been made to alter our existing ordinance. This is basically a housekeeping issue to match our flood plain ordinance with newly dated maps. On a motion by Gene Teague, seconded by Kimble Reynolds, Jr., with the following recorded vote: Lawson, aye; Reynolds, aye; Teague, aye; Stroud, aye; and Turner, aye, Council approved, on first reading, the updated Flood Plain ordinance. City Attorney Eric Monday explained to Council that Stone Ambulance contracts with the City to apply as-needed emergency transport; the contract requires liability coverage of $1,000,000.00. Their pool insurance carrier changed this year and will give them a lower premium rate if the coverage is required by ordinance as opposed to merely by contract. Stone is applying for insurance renewals now; this would need to be adopted on an emergency basis so as to become effective July 8, 2008. On a motion by Gene Teague, seconded by Mark Stroud, with the following recorded vote: Lawson, aye; Reynolds, aye; Teague, aye; Stroud, aye; and Turner, aye, Council approved, on an emergency basis so as to become effective July 8, 2008, amending Sec. 22.1 to change ambulance insurance requirements. After discussion, Council agreed to appoint Mark C. Stroud, Sr. to serve as the Council Member representative on the School Joint Capital Projects Committee. On a motion by Gene Teague, seconded by Kimble Reynolds, Jr., Council unanimously approved the following consent agenda: BUDGET ADDITIONS FOR 07/08/2008 ORG OBJECT DESCRIPTION DEBIT CREDIT FY08 GENERAL FUND: 01102926 436401 Categorical Federal - Fed Confiscated Assets - PO 38,269 01311085 506079 Police Department - Federal Asset Forfeitures 38,269 01100909 490104 Recovered Costs 3,942 01713211 506010 Park Maintenance - Maint & Materials 269 01713211 503190 Park Maintenance - Prof Serv - Bldg & Grds Maint 1,273 01713211 503210 Park Maintenance - Tree Trimming/Removal 2,400 (Insurance claim - tree fell on neighboring property) 01100909 490801 Recovered Costs - Senior Citizens 2,700 01714212 506016 Senior Citizens - Program Supplies 2,700 (trips & Bingo) Total General Fund: 44,912 44,912 SCHOOL FUND: 18103919 443130 Private Grants - Harvest Foundation Grant 85,000
