Cedar Fort gets new planning and zoning member, treasurer

By Linda Petersen
CEDAR FORT—The town council recently appointed Bart Berry as a new Planning and Zoning Board member to fill a vacancy left by the resignation of Paul Peterson. His term will end in 2021.

The council also appointed council member Richard Stark as city treasurer after a search for a new treasurer came up empty and Stark volunteered for the position. The council unanimously approved him as treasurer (with Stark abstaining) with the provision that his assignment over budget would be shifted to another council member.

Mayor Howard Anderson reported that the town received a recreational grant from hotel tax revenues for $1,000. The council voted to use those funds to replace gravel in the Cedar Fort Cemetery.

Anderson told the council the town had received another CDBG grant for recreation center modifications that will include a big room, a new HVAC unit and a new water line along 100 East connecting the community center to the town water system.

Anderson also reported that the town had been overcharged by the sheriff's department and would shortly be receiving a refund of almost $15,000.

The council approved a new contract with the sheriff's department for seven hours per week at the rate of $50/hour. The council also approved a contract with Dr. Mark Bair to back up the fire department, a provision required by law. The contract with Bair, an ER doctor with trauma training, is for $1,000 annually.

New fire department personnel Mathew Chase and Emily Covarrubias were administered the oath of office by the town clerk, Vonda Cook at the last council meeting.
