CITY COUNCIL AGENDA
_________________________________________________
The funding for this was approved by Resolution on June 20, 2023. It is part of the Community Service Agreements that are discussed during the budget.
Suggested Motion: I move to approve an agreement with the Sweetwater County District Board of Health, in the amount of $31,849.
The City of Green River currently has an agreement with Sweetwater County to use their detention facility to house municipal offenders sentenced to a jail term. The City pays a fee in order for the County to house these offenders. Over the last several years, the County has seen a rise in costs associated with housing inmates and, as such, needs to raise their housing rates to accommodate these rising costs. Currently, the rate for housing adult inmates is $85.00 per day. The County is seeking to raise that cost to $125.00 per day, which is consistent with average housing costs across the State of Wyoming and will help them cover their rising costs. They have drafted a new agreement reflecting this fee change.
Suggested Motion: I move to approve the Sweetwater County Detention Center Offender Detention Agreement and authorize the Mayor to sign the agreement, pending legal approval.
Suggested Motion: I move to approve the issuance of an open container permit to The Tomahawk Tavern, LLC for the showing of Halloween movies on October 27, 2023, from 5 pm until 10 pm, within the barricaded area on North 1st West Street from Flaming Gorge Way to the Alley located in the first block.
Suggested Motion: I move to approve the transfer of The Tomahawk Tavern's liquor license to cater alcoholic beverages at a concert on October 23, 2023, from 5 pm until midnight, at Bunning Freight Station in Rock Springs, pending approval by the Rock Springs City Council.
Suggested Motion: I move to approve the Utility Review Committee recommendation to credit Utility account 1232-010 in the amount of $804.66.
Suggested Motion: I move to approve the Right of Way Easement with Rocky Mountain Power for electrical facilities in the vicinity of North 5th West.
Suggested Motion: I move to authorize the Mayor to sign the Notice of Termination for the Industrial Stormwater Permit Coverage for the Closed Landfill (WYR001241).
Suggested Motion: I move to approve the FY24 Employee Assistance Program agreement with Southwest Counseling Service and authorize the Mayor to sign said document.
