(KLZA) -- The Auburn City Council Monday night conducted a public hearing on a liquor license application for the Bowldog bowling alley. Following the hearing the Council gave favorable comment to the application.
Trash billing through the Auburn Board of Public Works was reviewed. Auburn has required that all occupied homes in the community have trash service for many years. With the billing change a few questions have come up and are being reviewed by the BPW formed trash committee.
An agreement with Harry A. Koch Company regarding health insurance for city employees was discussed and a number of drawdowns on housing rehab projects and the Downtown Revitalization were approved during the meeting.
The Auburn Council also approved an agreement with a firm to help write the application for Auburn to receive National Historic District certification. A $7,000 grant the City received to hire a firm to write the grant will be used to pay Johnson, Mirmiran & Thompson to be the consulting firm to write the grant.
Discussion was held concerning a proposed addition to an ordinance concerning water lines to new developments. The proposal is to add regulations requiring a minimum fee of $1,500 plus $850 for connection fee for water services to new lots used for building. After discussion including opinions that such a requirement might keep people from building new homes, the Auburn City Council tabled the item.
Council members did authorize water and sewer liens against real estate with delinquent accounts with the Auburn Board of Public Works. Approval was given to hang a barn quilt on the City Hall building.
A request from the Nebraska Game and Parks Commission for an ordinance establishing regulations and restrictions on fish stocked in rotary Island Lake was also approved. Recently Game and Parks stocked Wipers in the lake in Auburn. A 21-inch size limit on the Wipers has been put in place along with a requirement that only one fish of 18 inches or larger per day be included in a fisherman’s daily bag limit.
