Crushed or non-crushed, we'll take them all. Balance now is $1,239 Community Building The great majority of residents responding to the postcards mailed requested we proceed with the building and to pay for it through a 5% franchise fee on gas and electric bills. The Council has decided to go ahead with the building, and has authorized issuance of $125,000 in bonds to complete the building. We have a 1.25 acre plot of land donated by Dick Gottlob at the intersection of Vine Avenue and 91st Road. We already have cleared weeds and excess trees and mowed the grass. Drive by to see it The bidding process is about to start, and dirt work should begin in late September to early October, with completion of the building late in 2009 or early in 2010. We'll advise as things happen. Garage sales Please pick up your garage sale signs after the sale is done. Decrepit signs and cardboard boxes look really sloppy. Thanks.

Contact Steve Jelf at skj@hit.net if you have something to sell, give away, want to buy, or you are available for work or are looking for services. 4-Wheelers & golf carts We are currently reviewing the applicable laws to advise what can be driven on our roads.

Drop them off next to the Mayor's driveway. Crushed or non-crushed, we'll take them all. Thanks to those who do crush. Balance now is $1,431 Community Building Request for bids to go out in November, and vendor selection in November when the bond money is available. We are later than expected, but hope to have the slab down and building up in December, weather permitting. Community Bulletin Board at www.parkerfieldks.org. Contact Steve Jelf at skj@hit.net if you have something to sell, give away, want to buy, or you are available for work or are looking for services. The Census Bureau has begun to gather census information, therefore take a moment to note the following advice from the Census Bureau: If a U.S. Census worker knocks on your door, they will have a badge, a handheld device, a Census Bureau canvas bag, and a confidentiality notice. Ask to see their identification and their badge before answering their questions. However, you should never invite anyone you don't know into your home. ** Census workers are currently only knocking on doors to verify address information. Do not give your Social Security number, credit card or banking information to anyone, even if they claim they need it for the U.S. Census. While the Census Bureau might ask for basic financial information, such as a salary range, the Census Bureau will not ask for Social Security, bank account, or credit card numbers nor will employees solicit donations. Eventually, Census workers may contact you by telephone, mail, or in person at home. However, the Census Bureau will not contact you by Email, so be on the lookout for Email scams impersonating the Census. Have a Very Happy Thanksgiving!! |

Crushed or non-crushed, we'll take them all. Thanks to those who do crush. Balance now is $1,431 Community Building Requests for bids for the 11 elements of the building project went out in November and bids were returned in early December. We are reviewing some high elements and are working to get the cost under the projected $125,000. Work will not begin until next year. Community Building Donations We are working to complete the Community Building within our budget of $125,000, and expect to get the dirt work, septic, concrete, building, erection, plumbing, electric, HVAC, and office complex completed for under $125,000. However, there are additional items necessary to use the building as we intended. These include office furnishings, tables and chairs for the meeting bay, stove refrigerator-kitchen stuff for the kitchen, and whatever small additional items will be required. We have already received over $3,000 in donations for these items. That's in addition to the generous donation of the land by the Gottlob family. If you would like to make a tax deductible donation toward the completion of the City/Community Building, contact Mayor Mike on 441-0717. To be counted against 2009 taxes, a 2009 donation must be received before the first of January. Community Bulletin Board at www.parkerfieldks.org. Contact Steve Jelf at skj@hit.net if you have something to sell, give away, want to buy, or you are available for work or are looking for services. Bad behavior we have had a problem
with high jinks by some of our younger residents. There have
been several cases of knock on doors or windows and run, and
also egging of a home. While we understand the 'fun' of these
activities, there can be consequences. The names of several offenders
are known, and the Sheriff will be contacted if more of these
events occur. Holiday Season We wish all a Merry Christmas and a happy New Year. |
