City of Waverly Minutes

SUMMARY OF COUNCIL MINUTES APRIL 8, 2003 MEETING The council received information from Tom Lutgen, Department of Natural Resources regarding the potential adoption of a floodplain ordinance. Waverly does not currently have residences in flood hazard zones. The residents in Waverly would be able to obtain flood insurance policies if the city participates in the National Flood Insurance Program. Lake residents will not be forced to purchase flood insurance. Brochures were left for the council to review. Adoption of the floodplain ordinance will be considered at the May 13, 2003 council meeting. The preliminary plat submitted by JB Land Inc. for Carrigan Estates was approved upon a positive recommendation by the Planning Commission.

The Council Fire Committee will schedule a meeting with Waverly Fire Department, Inc. to review the annual agreement. A capital improvement plan was presented by Bolton & Menk. Brad DeWolf and Clerk Ryks will meet with Shelly Eldridge, Ehlers & Associates to discuss bonding requirements.
