Consideration of Resolution No. 1440: Prohibition of Fireworks – City Administrator Tony Tolstedt presented Resolution No. 1440 that addresses suspending the use of fireworks for the 4th of July holiday in 2021. On June 22, 2021, the Fremont County Commissioners enacted a fire ban. As a result of that fire ban, this resolution would give the City Council the opportunity to suspend the use of fireworks within the corporate boundaries of the City of Riverton on the July 4th Holiday. Even with a County fire ban enacted, the Governing Body has final authority over any restrictions or variances within its corporate boundaries. City Clerk/Human Resource Director Kristin S. Watson read Resolution No. 1440 by title only. Resolution No. 1440 failed due to lack of a motion; therefore, use of fireworks within the City of Riverton is permissible pursuant to the provisions of RMC Chapter 8.04. Consideration of Hill Street Change Order – Public Works Director Kyle Butterfield reported on a change order request for the Hill Street Improvement Project. Mr. Butterfield stated this change order (Change Order No. 2) addresses the alignment of the new sewer main which is in jeopardy as threading each of the existing utilities became impossible as well as the replacement of the northern portion of the city’s water distribution line on Hill Street. Council Member Larson moved, seconded by Council Member Bailey approve the Hill Street Improvement Project Change Order No. 2 in the amount of $193,165.40. Motion passed unanimously. Consideration of West Main Water Project Change Order – Public Works Director Kyle Butterfield reported on a change order for the West Main Street Waterline Replacement Project. During construction, it was discovered the water main was leaking significant amounts of water just east of the project limits.

This item will be brought before the Council at a future meeting. There was no action taken from the Council.
