SOUTH HUTCHINSON, Kan. — The South Hutchinson City Council heard a report on the water issues they are facing during Monday’s regular meeting.
A representative with Professional Engineering Consultants presented the council with some of the figures and issues with the current water system and ideas for dealing with any possible shortages in the water supply.
The city’s water allotment is about 349 million gallons per year which averages about 956,000 gallons per day. About half of that number is used by one customer, Tyson Prepared Foods. No action was taken by the Council.
Also Monday night, the Council took time to discuss the vacant City Administrator's position. The Council was in agreement to seek out a firm to help in the search for a new administrator. The city has been without an administrator since Matt Stiles left in 2018.
