Bowie Council to hear report from its power provider

Members of the Bowie City Council will hear a presentation from its electric power provider on its rate and transmission cost when they meet at 6 p.m. on June 10.
A planning and goals’ workshop also is set to follow the regular meeting.
Ken Lindburg of Bryan Texas Utilities will meet with the council to review its bulk power costs with BTU and the city’s transmission costs. City Manager Bert Cunningham has been recommending changes to the city bill to help offset transmission costs the city has been absorbing.
Possible expenditures for the parks board to make repairs on the Pelham Park walking trail will be considered. A group of local walkers approached the council last month about making repairs to the decaying asphalt trail to help avoid accidents.
Two re-appointments to parks board also will be presented.
The city manager’s report will cover numerous topics including the Nelson Street bridge and the status of that project as well as the sewer line replacement program. He will discuss replacing a water line on Wichita Street, the lake line leak, storm siren testing and a meeting on the substation upgrade.
The only old item of business is the second reading of the ordinance adopting an updated water conservation and drought contingency plan.
Public comments conclude the regular council agenda.
