The Clarendon City Council met in regular session December 10 with several items to consider on its agenda.
Aldermen approved renewing the city’s contract with the Donley County Appraisal District for assessment and collection of property taxes, and the city approved a motion dividing its votes for the appraisal board for Lance Thornberry, Britton Hall, and Wilma Lindley.
The council took no action on a presentation from McKinstry on wastewater and water infrastructure.
No bids were received for contract animal control services, and City Administrator David Dockery says the city will now fill that need with a full time staff position.
The aldermen adopted a conflict of interest policy and a fund designation and capital improvement plan as necessary steps for pursuing USDA funding for a water infrastructure project. A public hearing related to the possible application for USDA funding will be held Tuesday, January 5, 2016.
An update was given on the water recreation project.
Dockery reported that Clarendon will host a quarterly meeting of the Texas Municipal League in Amarillo next month. At that meeting, Clarendon College’s Ashlee Estlack will give a presentation on branding and marketing, Jo Shaller will perform cowboy poetry, and Steve Hall and Jesse Lincycomb will provide musical entertainment, Dockery said.
