BY BOB RODRIGUEZ
Weighty topics including
Main Street improvement
plans, employee benefits and
policies on personnel and
purchasing consumed near-
ly three hours as the Town
of Byron mayor and coun-
cil powwowed in a work ses-
sion and a regular meeting
on Tuesday night, Aug. 11,
in the Byron Town Complex.
Beginning at 6 p.m. the
officials huddled for an hour
preceding the regular meet-
ing, which lasted until al-
most 9 p.m. av. atten-
tive crowd of some 25 citizens
attending the discussions
and pondering by their elect-
ed leaders. Both gatherings
were void of significant con-
tention, which had marked
recent meetings. In fact, af-
ter the almost three hours of
deliberations, Mayor Heidi
Brightly remarked to an ob-
server that she was great-
ly pleased with the coopera-
tive atmosphere and general
lack of disharmony.
The first 30 minutes of
the work session involved
a detailed presentation by
Frank Page, a profession-
al engineer from the Cody
office of Morrison-Maierle
Inc., regarding the town's
sewer master plan/Main
Street utilities master plan
in connection with Wy-
DOT's planned redoing the
main drag in 2019. In reg-
ular session, taking literal-
ly a minute for the matter,
the vote was 5-0 in favor of
authorizing the mayor to
sign a $10,000 agreement
with Morrison-Maierle for
planning and coordinating
a wastewater master plan
and preparing a State Loan
and Investment Board grant
application; and working to-
ward plans for water, sew-
er and irrigation system
improvements in connec-
tion with WyDOT's 2019 re-
surfacing project for Main
Street, and a related poten-
tial chip seal project. Page
stressed that he will work
hard to aid the town as its
consultant; that he will at-
n amon
tend council meetings and
be available by telephone,
too, and could come in under
the budgeted amount.
Regarding other topics
in the work meeting, during
which no action can be tak-
en, Brightly and her coun-
cilors focused on health ben-
efits for the town's three
full-time employees: Direc-
tor of Public Works Brock
Meier, Clerk/Treasurer Don-
na Booth and Police Patrol-
man Noe Garcia. The of-
ficials also reviewed some
personnel policies and in the
regular meeting ate up near-
ly 50 minutes and almost
completed going through the
17-page document to make
various wording chang-
es and deleting some items
as the number of those in
the audience dwindled. The
completed version will be
made available, possibly
next month.
Dwain Jackson com-
mented from the audience
that "there's no need to re-
invent the wheel," noting
that Cody has such a man-
ual and that the mayor and
councilors could look at it
and adapt it for Byron. In
talking about wages, Coun-
cilman Alan Bair said the
council needs to be involved,
citing the mayor's recent hir-
ing of Carmen Meier, Brock
Meier's mother, as potential
backup for Booth.
As for the health bene-
fits, the council in the regu-
lar session voted 5-0 to ex-
pand coverage, which will be
paid for by the city, although
the three workers will have
to pay for dental and vi-
sion coverage if they so de-
cide. The health coverage
amounts range from $592 to
$1,586 per month depending
on the individual and any
family members.
In other matters:
*The mayor stirred
some disagreement in seek-
ing support for a "Conflict of
Interest Ownership/Inter-
est Policy," which she said
that she had signed and sub-
mitted for herself. Council-
man Bair said that some of
the phrasing "doesn't make
sense" and that some is un-
clear. Councilman Gary Pet-
rich declined to immediately
comment on his opinion de-
spite Brightly urging him to
do so. Indications are that
the mayor will provide a list
of all town vendors at Bair's
suggestion to help clarify the
situation.
*Bair urged a good look
at state law regarding when
bills must be paid, as he has
continually recommended
that all bills should be re-
viewed and approved by the
council instead of the cur-
rent format under which
the council essentially "rub-
ber stamps" expenses from
the preceding month. A new
process is in the works, and
Booth was thanked for her
efforts.
*There was some con-
versation led by Bair about
the mayor's idea to devel-
op a "Purchasing Guideline
Manual." Bair stated that
there "have been some hic-
cups" involving problems
such as Garcia being able to
purchase a bullet-resistant
vest and a situation with
the Rec Department. Nu-
merous aspects of purchas-
ing protocol were outlined
and the matter will come up
again. Bair's position that
all spending needs council
review and that those au-
thorized to purchase items
for the town need to know
where they stand was ques-
tioned from the audience by
Teri Coy. Her point was that
if preauthorization is grant-
ed to department heads,
then how can the council re-
view such purchases? Bair
explained that he'd be OK
with a preauthorization sit-
uation as long as guidelines
were in place.
*Due to the consider-
able perambulations and
the lateness of the hour the
august body agreed to table
until the September meet-
ing discussion on a planned
personnel job description
review.
