1. SHELTER HOUSE FOR THE DEEPWATER BOATRAMP.

THIS PROJECT PROPOSAL WAS SUBMITTED TO THE ARMY CORPS OF ENGINEERS IN JUNE OF 2007 AND WAS APPROVED IN DECEMBER 2007.

THIS SHELTER HOUSE PROJECT WILL BE CARRIED OUT BY MEMBERS OF THE BOAT RAMP COMMITTEE.THOSE MEMBERS ARE RICK ANGEL,RICHARD ANGEL,ARNOLD RYUN,JERRY POINTDEXTER.

---

2. SMALL RV PARK INSIDE THE CITY LIMITS OF DEEPWATER.

THIS PROPOSAL HAS NOT YET BEEN SUBMITTED.HOWEVER MEMBERS OF PLANNING & ZONING HAVE WORKED HARD TO MAKE THIS HAPPEN.

I FEEL ALDERMAN ARNOLD RYUN WILL BE RIGHT PERSON TO ASSIST MEMBERS OF PLANNING & ZONING TO MOVE THIS PROJECT FORWARD ONCE IT HAS BEEN APPROVED,THERE WILL BE RESTROOMS SHOWER HOUSES PRIMITIVE CAMPING AS WELL PULL THROUGH RV PARKING.

---

3. LARGE RV PARK OUTSIDE CITY LIMITS OF DEEPWATER,

THIS PROPOSAL HAS NOT YET BEEN SUBMITTED. HOWEVER ALDERMAN ERIC GREENWELL AND DARRELL WOLFE HAVE SHOWN A GREAT DEAL OF INTEREST IN MAKING THIS HAPPEN.

THESE TWO ALDERMAN WILL LEAD THIS PROJECT WHICH INCLUDES BATHROOMS,SHOWER HOUSES, AND WILL ACCOMMODATE PRIMITIVE CAMPING AND RVS. THERE MAY BE A GRANT AVAILABLE IN APRIL OF 2008.

---

4. YOUTH & SENIOR ACTIVITIES CENTER.

THIS PROJECT FOR 2008 CARRIES A HUGE LOAD OF RESPONSIBILITY.

THIS PLAN NOT ONLY ALLOWS SENIOR CITIZENS A PLACE TO EXERCISE OR WALK DURING COLD WINTER MONTHS,BUT ALSO ALLOWS THE YOUTH OF DEEPWATER A PLACE CONGREGATE AND GET INVOLVED IN SPORTS ACTIVITIES.

THERE WILL BE VARIOUS WORKOUT EQUIPMENT,POSSIBLY BASKET BALL,WRESTLING,AND BOXING. A SKATE PARK ALSO HAS BEEN PROPOSED AND A GRANT IS AVAILABLE.

CHIEF BILBRUCK AND SOME VOLUNTEERS HAVE BROUGHT SOME EXERCISE EQUIPMENT AND BOXING GLOVES TO THE GYM,AND THE HEAT IS ON.ALDERMAN SHANE DUGAN,CHIEF BILBRUCK,AND CAPTAIN DALLAS WELLS WILL BE WORKING TO MOVE THIS PROJECT FORWARD.

---

5. THE WASTE WATER PROJECT APPROVED IN 2007 WILL MOVE FORWARD IN 2008, THE MAYOR WILL BE DOING A LOT OF THE FOOTWORK ONCE ALL OF THE PAPERWORK HAS BEEN COMPLETED.

MILDRED DUNNING HAS ALREADY BEGUN A GREAT DEAL OF THIS PAPERWORK AS SOON AS THE CITY GETS THE GO AHEAD WE WILL START COLLECTING BIDS,AND POSSIBLY GOING DOOR TO DOOR TO GET TEMPORARY EASEMENTS.

---

6.DEVELOPMENT OF GREEN MEADOWS

THIS WILL BE A LONG PROCESS OF OBTAINING FUNDING FOR THE ROADS AND SEWER, ONLY THEN CAN HOMES BE BUILT IN THAT AREA.THE MAYOR WILL PURSUE THIS FUNDING.

---

7. I AM ALSO PROPOSING TO ADD TO THE LIST A SPRING FUND RAISER ACTIVITY.

IN THE FALL EVERY YEAR THE PICNIC BOARD PRODUCES THE LABOR & HARVEST PICNIC WHICH IS A HUGE DRAW FOR DEEPWATER.

THIS YEAR I THINK THE CITY SHOULD CONSIDER ANOTHER VENUE FOR THE SPRING. THE SPRING ART IN THE PARK HELD IN MARCH,SPRING CARS IN THE PARK FOR CAR SHOWS POSSIBLY A LOST ARTS FESTIVALINCLUDING WOOL SPINNING,BLACK SMITHING,MAYBE LIVE MUSIC.

THE CITY COULD USE THE DUNK TANK TO RAISE FUNDS,THE YOUTH AND REC COULD HAVE CONCESSIONS,THE FIRE DEPT.COULD HAVE A RAFFLE OR ACTIVITY.

THESE ARE ALL POSSIBILITIES.

 

All of the people involved with these various projects are not limited to working on just that one,I encourage a good team environment.

To achieve all of these goals we should all work together, to make Deepwater a better place to live. Any resident of Deepwater that would like to volunteer on any one of these projects please do by contacting city hall 660-696-2310
