Columbia City Council - April Meeting Report By Tiffany Kessler In what has become a popular portion of the Columbia City Council monthly meeting, Mayor Pam Hoots gave her detailed reports concerning city business. With roughly 2,000 children and adults per year visiting Joe Johnson Little League Park, renovations for the area have become one of Mayor Hoots and council members' top priorities. Work at the park has continued and should be ready for games which begin next week. Projects completed include: fresh paint for the restrooms, dugouts, tables, and announcement boxes; fencerows cleaned out; pressure washing has given a new look to picnic tables under the shelter and other areas in need; bathrooms that were once destroyed by vandals have been repaired; and holes in the parking lots have been patched. "If people had seen the old restroom before work had been done," explained Mayor Hoots, "I mean it is amazing now compared to what it was before. I spoke to someone at the park the other night whose son was 14 years old and had played little league. They couldn't remember the restroom being utilized within that time." During the very first meeting Mayor Hoots presided over, she made it clear that parks and downtown beautification were very dear to her. It was during that same meeting that she announced 10% of the city occupational tax would be set aside for parks and recreation. Other items included in Mayor Hoots report during the April meeting included: Gas survey is still in progress with the first phase including Green Hills, Hwy. East 80, Russell Springs Rd, East 80 Estates, and Churchill Estates. 70 signs have been removed from right of ways. Mayor Hoots is encouraging citizens to refrain from littering. During the month of March litter pickup was conducted on Young Street, Tutt Street, Bomar Heights, Greensburg Street, Rice Drive, Fairground Street, and Dillon Street. Numerous potholes have been repaired, sidewalks are being pressure washed, and street lights are being restored. The first phase of the large sidewalk repair project will begin this month. The City Police cruiser that was involved in an accident on East 80 last month has been replaced at no cost to the city. A new flagpole and flag is in the works for City Hall. Mayor Hoots has met with members of the USDA for possible future funding opportunities. All council members were present, including: Craig Dean, Linda Waggener, Dr. Ronald Rogers, Sharon Payne, June Parson, and Mark Harris. Regular meetings for the Columbia City Council are held the first Monday of each month at 6pmCT located in City Hall, 116 Campbellsville ST, Columbia, KY. Meetings are open to the public.
