4.16.2023 Mayor’s Message

Hi Folks,

  • April 15th was “Jackie Robinson Day” in Major League Baseball (MLB) celebrating the anniversary of his first day in MLB.  In 1947, Jackie, a Hall of Famer, played for the “Brooklyn Dodgers” and was the first ballplayer in MLB who was black.  Aaron Boone, Yankees’ Manager said “Jackie was larger than baseball and one of the most important figures in American History”.
  • A number of our Valley City Public School (VCPS) facilities are in dire need of repair or replacement.  The high school was built in 1919 and upkeep let alone updating are very expensive.  Washington and Jefferson need work too though the high school is the most needy.  For detailed information, contact school administration or a school board member.   A friend told us, “We are responsible to furnish educational opportunities for two generations following us.”  We have fallen way behind with our facilities so we need to “step up” to have good school buildings for our children and our grandchildren.
  • Last week’s warm weather melted much snow and the cooler temperatures over the weekend slowed melting again.  If that melting pattern continues, it may minimize flooding.  Forecasts are promising though significant rain or high temperatures could change things.  Stay tuned.
  • Spring is nearing, people are riding motorcycles & bikes while kids are out playing, tracksters are running and others are out walking.  Please be aware of these things when you are driving so we can keep everyone safe.  Remember, pedestrians have “Right-of-Way” at crosswalks, STOP for them.  Thank you everyone.
  • Missouri River Energy Services (MRES) is investing in regional transmission lines to generate income and offset total transmission service costs for MRES Members.  Thank you.
  • Thanks to all who provide and proof material for this article.
  • In baseball there is always tomorrow.  Maybe you got me today, but tomorrow – – – I am coming back.”

Commissioner Jim Wright made a motion to closed the public hearing. Seconded by Commissioner Jeff Erickson.  

Internal discussion was had about the replat. City planner Quanbeck report recommend minor requirements for the preliminary plat are addressed by providing adjoining land ownership information, indication the area of each lot in square feet, and providing a drawing showing how stormwater drainage is managed.

4.9.2023 Mayor’s Message

Hello Everybody,

  • I hope yours was a great weekend with family and friends.  The warm sun, with much melting, a weekend without blowing snow and battling ice was greatly appreciated.
  • Perhaps there will be a new flood potential forecast this week.  Considering the snow event we had last week, it will be interesting to see if our forecast changes.
  • Our City Administrator, Gwen, along with our Department Heads, and many of our employees have reviewed and updated our “Flood Book”.  The Flood Book is our guide for noting at what heights each bridge is closed, when & where clay levees & flood walls are installed.  Basically it contains everything needed to manage flooding situations.  Last week Gwen facilitated a tutorial for our commissioners, it was really well done!  Thank you everyone.
  • In a letter from CHI Mercy Health, President Ryan, we are reminded that even walking a “little more” can make a big difference in how well we feel. Thank you Ryan.
  • Chautauqua Boulevard has no curb on the riverside.  When the levees were removed last fall, topsoil was placed and grass was seeded, so driving in the mud is very destructive and costs you, the tax payers, more of your tax dollars.
  • The VCFD had a fundraiser awhile back, thanks to all who attended and contributed.  Have you wondered how funds are utilized?  A few years ago the glass overhead doors on the building were purchased and now money is being earmarked to replace the rescue boat.  Thanks folks.
  • Throughout our nation and the world there are “trying times” of unrest and violence.  Whatever your Faith, please pray for serenity and peace.
  • Thanks to all who provide and proof material for this article.
  • When I change the way I look at things, the things I look at change.”        ~ Anonymous                                                                                                     

Blessings, Pray, be Grateful and Respectful,

Dave

4.2.2023 Mayor’s Message

Greetings Folks,

  • Jews celebrate Passover April 5-13.
  • Christians celebrate “Holy Week” & Easter this week.
  • Last week the Twins opened the season with three games at Kansas City in the sunshine and green grass of Kaufman Stadium.  It looked serene.  Though spring weather is slow getting here, it will arrive………
  • Hopefully you made opportunities to enjoy the Saturday and Sunday sunshine in town, though Saturday out of town roads became super slippery from drifting snow sticking to the road surfaces.
  • As the Legislative Session nears its end the pace of addressing bills picks up.  A few of the bills we are tracking are: HB 1040 regarding NDPERS, SB 2330 regarding Legacy infrastructure Loan fund (as per last biennium’s  HB 1425) and SB 2020 relating to funding for projects like Permanent Flood Protection (PFP).  In SB 2020, Valley City’s request for PFP is $13.2M and is critical for our next construction phase.  An easy way to track bills is to enter “North Dakota bill number” into a search engine.
  • As mentioned previously, there is potential for high water this spring.  The speed at which the snow melts and how much more precipitation is received are crucial.  Your city crews are preparing equipment and procedures should needs arise.
  • Missouri River Energy Services (MRES) “Culture Statement” #1, “We care about the well-being of each employee, promoting a work/life balance, and a safe work environment”.
  • Sue and I attended the movie “Champions” at our Bison 6 Cinema this weekend.  The story, a coach is sentenced to 90-days of coaching a Special Olympics Team.  “Let me win, but if I cannot win, let me be brave in the attempt”.
  • Thanks to all who provide and proof material for this article.
  • When there is no consequence for poor work ethic and no reward for good work ethic, there is no motivation.”        ~ JD Roberts                                                                                                     

Blessings, Pray, be Grateful and Respectful,

Dave
