According to Monticello Mayor Jason Akers, the City of Monticello will host its 2nd City-Wide Clean Up effort of the year on Friday November 8th & and Saturday November 9th as part of the Keep Arkansas Beautiful Campaign.
Supplies such as trash bags, gloves and safety equipment for the clean up will be provided by the Keep Arkansas Beautiful Program.
All city departments will participate in the cleanup effort on Friday and on Saturday any citizens, church or civic groups wishing to participate may do so. Groups may come by City Hall on Friday and pick up clean up supplies.
Some past clean up participants include Immanuel Baptist, the Church of Christ, NAACP Chapter 6042 & Kim’s Dance Factory. The program has collected thousands of pounds of litter and roadside trash in Monticello since being implemented in 2023.
The Monticello City Council met in budget committee, Thursday night to discuss the total $7.3 million bids that were received on Tuesday for moving the water and sewer lines out from under Main Street, north and south, and the possible ways to finance the higher than expected costs.
After an hour long meeting, the council agreed to reject both bids, instead of saddling the city with the long-term expense of paying the debt, which was higher than the bids were expected to come in at.
They will likely meet in a special call meeting to pass a resolution to make this official, but they were unanimous in their decision, at this point.
They agreed to have ARDOT mI’ll and pave Main Street, as was previously set out in the Scogin Drive Extension agreement.
The council agreed that the waterlines do need to be moved out of the street, also that the sewer lines are not a top priority, at this point, and to consider other ways to take care of the waterline relocation, in the near future, just not at the current bid expense.
According to Monticello Mayor Jason Akers, City crews began addressing drainage and infrastructure issues in the Western Pines neighborhood this week, beginning at the Western Pines Park. (more…)
According to Mayor Jason Akers, the Main Street water and sewer line replacement will going out for bids in September, with the bid opening to occur at City Hall on September 23rd at 4 p.m. (more…)
