During general business, a board member proposed naming the water plant in honor of the city’s first female mayor, Deanie, and recounted an anecdote from her single term as context for the suggestion.
"She only served 1 term, but maybe it's the water plant," said a board member suggesting the honor and told a story that in 1931 the mayor cut off water service to residents who were not paying their bills. The member described that episode as part of Deanie’s legacy and urged colleagues to consider placing a naming item on a future agenda.
Board members reacted with brief comments and laughter; no formal vote or resolution to rename the facility was taken and any future action would require placement on a forthcoming agenda and a formal proposal.
