Frankfort City Council Approves 53.6% Increase To Water Rates

Published on

The Frankfort City Council took the final two-steps to increase water rates by 53.6% at its Monday, August 24, 2020, Council meeting. After holding a public hearing on Ordinance 20-13, the Council voted 6-0 approving the new water rate.

The water rate increase will be phased in over 3-years.

After the meeting, Todd Corrie, General Manager of the Frankfort Municipal Utilities, was ecstatic the 3-year process of developing plans for much-needed work on the existing water system was completed.

“I am very happy that this is done, ecstatic,” said Corrie. “It has been a long process. We have been working on this probably for 3-years now.”

Over $13,600,000 is needed to expand and begin repair of the current Frankfort water network. This need is being driven by a forecasted demand in water usage over the next 20-years and the current condition of the system.

Corrie discussed how the new funds will be used.

“There’s going to be an upgrade to the plant. It’s going to go from 6 million gallons to 9 million gallons a day. We are going to finish off something that we call the Jefferson Loop. It is connecting from Jefferson back around to the industrial park off of County Road 0.”

He also added the increase will help in making the plants safer and allow for the replacement of existing water main.

“We’re going to go to an on-site generation for our chlorine. Then, we have money in there to rehabilitate one of the water towers and then be saving money with this to do the next one probably 5 years down the road. Also be in place to replace water mains at a rate of maybe a mile a year is what we’re going to be shooting for and it is all very expensive.”

When asked when ratepayers should expect to see the increase, Corrie said the topic will be discussed at the next Utility Service Board meeting.

“We are going to discuss this at our next Utility Service Board and it (the rate increase) will be sometime between September and October 1st.”

The next USB meeting will be Tuesday, September 8, 2020, at 7 p.m.

Clinton Central Makes Changes to In-Person Learning Due To COVID-19 Cases: 10 Positive Cases Throughout Corporation, 3 New Cases Over Past 3-Days

Published on

Clinton Central Superintendent Al Remaly notified parents Sunday, August 23, 2020, of changes to in-person learning.

Remaly said in a letter: “I was hoping to not have to make this call and I apologize that it is late on Sunday afternoon, but there are going to be some changes to the daily schedules at Clinton Central. We have had a total of 10 COVID19 positive cases throughout the corporation, 3 over the past three days. With the contact tracing that has been conducted, about 25% of the students at the jr/sr high school are impacted. This does not mean that 25% of the students have COVID19, it means they are considered close contacts and are required to quarantine for 14 days.”

“For Clinton Central Elementary, all students will be on remote learning for 1 week only starting Monday, August 24th. The elementary students will resume with their regular school schedule on Monday, August 31st. Why only one week? There have been no new cases of COVID19 outside of the 4th grade section. The daily structure/schedule of the elementary is much easier to control.”

“For Clinton Central Jr/Sr High School, all students will begin remote learning for 2 weeks starting on Monday, August 24th. Instead of resuming with a regular schedule, the jr/sr high school students will transition to a Hybrid Schedule beginning on Tuesday, September 8th. A hybrid schedule allows us to have only 50% of the students in the building and allows us to ensure social distancing of 6 feet or more. For these 2 weeks, all extracurricular activities are postponed.”

“Sometime tomorrow, all students/families will receive information from either the building principal or the classroom teacher about how learning will proceed.”
