(KLZA)-- The Pawnee  City water tower improvement project is underway.  

Pawnee City water customers are to conserve water and City Foreman Spencer Cumley is to shut water service off to people who are not complying with the order to conserve water. 

During the April 26 Council meeting,  the Council received an update on the swimming pool.  The joints in the pool have been completely cleaned out and caulking is being replaced. The contractor doing the work told City Foremen Cumley that when the previous contractor, Premier Pools & Spas cleaned out the cold joints,  they should have removed two-inches of material out of every joint and cleaned them  before resealing them,  but it appears that barely a quarter-inch of material was removed.   

The Council also approved $650 donations to both the Pawnee Gun Club which sponsors the Pawnee City Trapshooting Team and the Pawnee City Ball Association.  The City will also pay the electric bill for the Pawnee Ball Association and will do the same for the Gun Club once they have their lights operating.

Mayor Charlie Hatfield asked both organizations to work  together to pick up trash along the street and road leading from the Ball Field to Highway 50 and from the Ball Field to Highway 8.
