The new City Council took office Thursday, May 7th. The meeting went very well and the council would like to encourage anyone and everyone to come to the meetings and participate.
For anyone wishing to have some bricks from the Street Project, the City Council is offering the brick located at the City workshop for free. We are not offering large amounts of brick to any one person, so if you are wishing for large quantities, please speak with the City Office first. The City will not be available to load or deliver brick, so you must help yourself. We are also not offering brick to any non-Hodgeman County residents until after August 1st. Therefore if you are a current resident, prior resident, or a direct relative, you may have access now.
The City Administrator Grayson Path announced his resignation Thursday night. His last working day will be June 5th. He has taken the City Administrator position of Nebraska City, NE. He would like to express his sincere gratitude to the citizens of Jetmore for welcoming and working with him these past two years.
The stormwater and water portions of the street project have begun. Citizens will be able to observe the laying of new piping as they drive or walk by. Both this project and the power project are continuing to move forward.
Over the next couple of weeks, the City has contracted with Utility Maintenance Contractors to clean out the sewer lines west of Main Street. Those living in this area will have received orange sticky notes on their doors (or soon will) telling them what to do to prepare. Due to the process we are unable to give an exact day for each block as there are too many factors involved, so please be watching for these crews as they come closer to your home or call the City office. They will be starting in the Cheyenne Development and working their way toward the Power Plant – Main Street and Park Street.
