CORRECTION: In the Clinton County Planning and Zoning story on Thursday, July 13, we mistakenly reported that Cody Sloan, general manager of the Cameron Co-op requesting a zoning change, said the site in question would not store ammonium nitrate. Sloan had actually said the site would not store anhydrous ammonia. Ammonium nitrate is a fertilizer than many farmers in the area depend upon for use in their fields. We apologize and regret the error. In the Clinton County Commissioners’ final approval of the zoning request, the commission stipulated that no anhydrous ammonia could be stored on the site as a condition of approval.

The SS4A and MODOT TAP Projects continue to move forward with the city receiving its first invoice for services from Snyder and Associates for just over $6,753, with the city’s share of $1,600.

The first step for the city was to form a committee of local citizens with support from MoDOT and MO-KAN Regional to gather information. That committee is now formed, with Alderman Paul Pottier serving as the chairman.

Jose Rodrigez will represent MoDOT, Trevor Tutt is the MO-KAN representative. Gower citizens on the committee include Amy Adams, Adam Hill (representing law enforcement), Jessica Roe (representing Gower Fire Protection District), Dana Hetrick, Jenni Busby, Lindee Horn, and Jesse Fisher (representing the East Buchanan School District). Mayor Ken Pike is also on the committee. The committee’s first meeting will be held on Tuesday, July 18, at city hall.

The city’s share of the $62,500 SS4A Grant will be $12,500, which could include in-kind work by the city. It was also decided that Carroll Fisher will also hold a position on this committee, as well.

Alderman Pottier wants citizens to know this will be a lengthy process, taking at least a year or longer to design an action plan that is federally approved. Again, the city’s share can be payment as well as in-kind services.

Cydney Adkins addressed the council, requesting that Railroad and Fourth Streets be closed December 9 for Christmas in the Park.

Adkins stated the committee is planning to have a lighted Christmas parade and the holiday train Justin and Jeremy Hartzell operate in Plattsburg. She is also asking that the committee be allowed to put lights up in City Park again. The council approved these requests.

Department reports were provided, with Carroll Fisher informing the council that a skimmer at the treatment plant would need repair at an estimated cost of $1,200 and that one lift station was down after a recent storm. The issue has not been determined as yet. He is hoping the street repairs will start soon.

Officer Joseph Winterer provided the council with the police department report, as Chief Adam Hill was on vacation. He reported that the department had 56 calls for service, two accidents were worked, and there were five code enforcement violations addressed. Planning and Zoning Administrator Chip Holman reported there were three permits issued, no zoning issues addressed.

Both Holman and Adkins wanted to thank the city for its support in the Gower Days Festival. Holman thanked the municipal workers specifically for their support and work.

Adkins was chair of the Gower Car Show and stated there were more than 200 entries, with only a few not showing up. Holman stated there were 64 vendors attending the festival and the new electrical services installed recently worked great. The only issue was some vendors who did not have the correct plug to hook up to the power. This was the fault of the vendors, as all were provided with a picture of the type plug needed.
