Council gives OK to sewer-bond vote in August The average sewer bill for a Neosho household runs about $12.86 a month, according to city documents.
If voters agree to participate in the state’s low-interest loan fund, that bill would rise to between $18.09 and $24.53 a month, depending on what kind of rates were imposed on the larger users. In other business, the council asked Blase to discuss a proposed sign code with members of the business community. The council has been reviewing a proposed code that would require permits for many signs, spell out maintenance requirements for the signs, detail which ones would and would not be allowed, and impose some size limits. The proposed regulations also would cover banners, commercial flags and pennants, garage-sale signs, and electronic signs. A number of local business people have told the council they worry that the proposal would be too restrictive, Blase said. Blase said he will be meeting with members of the business community over the next month. The council then will revisit the sign code. Appointment The Neosho City Council on Tuesday appointed Sherry McCormack to complete the term left vacant by the resignation of RoseMarie Carnes. McCormack served one three-year term on the council, including a stint as mayor pro tem, before the April 2006 election. In that race for two seats, McCormack finished fourth among four candidates with 788 votes, behind Howard Birdsong, 908, Carnes, 900; and David Holley, 874. Carnes’ term has less than one year left.
