Citizens can use our website to sign up for alerts that they wish to receive. The Alert Center will provide an efficient and noticeable way to get important news out to the community, whether it be local inconveniences like street closures and road conditions, or critical Amber Alerts. The Calendar allows administrators to set up calendar items and recurring events in an effort to keep the public informed about the goings-on in our community. With the Notify Me application, the visitors can sign up to be notified via email and/or SMS text message about community activities, meetings, and other updates. Administrators can create as many Notify Me lists as they want, and the module also automatically integrates with our Alerts Center, News Flash, Calendar, Job Postings, and Bid Postings. The Citizen Request Tracker (CRT) will be a powerful tool that facilitates interoffice and government-to-citizen communication and workflow concerning requests reported by residents. Commissioner Mills asked how many days or hours the department has to respond after the department head receives the request? Mr. Gunter said that a response is expected immediately or give an estimate of the time needed for a request to be fulfilled. Commissioner Taylor asked what kind of accountability are we looking for? The City will set the parameters, whether it is 24 hours or 48 hours and if the request has not been answered in a reasonable time period, it will go to a higher authority. Mr. Toy stated that the site is expected to be up and running by the end of the year or early January 2012. __________________________ COMMISSIONER PRUITT left the meeting, therefore he was recorded as absent. ___________________________ APPROVAL OF CONSENT AGENDA: MAYOR AUSTIN asked Carolyn Williams, City Clerk, to read the following items included on the Consent Agenda: Minutes: October 11, 2011, Regular Meeting Resolution: Resolution No. 92-11 Authorizing the Submittal of a Grant Application for Mass Transit Assistance MOTION by Commissioner Farmer, seconded by Commissioner Mills, to approve the Consent Agenda.

Mr. Ternes stated that we have written a couple of letters and made personal contact. It looks like this property would work best by having a single annexation at this point. MR. SIGHTS added that this is not the ideal way to annex because the correct way is to do it as “contiguous” and complete as you go but state legislature has made it so difficult for cities to annex, so we felt that it would be an injustice to leave someone outside the City that wants to come in. MR. TERNES added that by using Wathen Lane as a means to reach his property because Wathen Lane and that area serves a municipal purpose already by having utility service lines in it. _________________________ MAYOR AUSTIN stated that the I-69 shield unveiling was held today in Nortonville.
