During a recent government meeting, officials addressed several key community issues, including water pressure complaints and personnel changes within the fire department.
Concerns were raised regarding water pressure in certain areas, particularly at the intersection of 100 North and First East. Officials clarified that while there have been complaints, the water pressure levels remain unchanged, and the recent increase in pipe size should not be contributing to the issue. It was noted that some homes may lack pressure reduction valves, which can lead to higher pressure in upper areas of the system. Officials encouraged residents to reach out with any further questions on this matter.
In other news, the meeting highlighted the celebration of Constitution Month, with a successful event held at the Capitol attended by local residents.
Additionally, the fire board announced the appointment of Deputy Chief Greg Stewart as the new fire chief, effective in two weeks. His promotion will necessitate the selection of a new deputy chief to fill his previous role. The meeting concluded with a positive outlook on these developments, emphasizing community engagement and leadership transitions.
