McALESTER Taking steps to help McAlester Public Schools for completion of a new metal roof at a school in the city is among the items on the agenda for the McAlester City Councils next regular meeting.

Councilors are set to meet in regular session at 6 p.m. Tuesday in the council chambers at City Hall.

An agenda item regarding the school roof calls for councilors to consider and act upon a memorandum of understanding between the McAlester Public Works Authority and the McAlester Public Schools Board of Education.

The action, placed on the agenda by City Manager Pete Stasiak would authorizes the release of funds derived from City Ordinance 2159 for the acquisition, construction or equipment of educational facilities.

Councilors are to consider a motion to approve a memorandum of understanding that would convey to the McAlester School District $370,000 to be used for completion of the new metal roof at Puterbaugh Middle School.

The McAlester Public Works Authority approved a memorandum of understanding Feb. 14, 2012, to provide McAlester Public Schools $700,000 for the repair or replacement of school roofs.

MPS is requesting an additional $370,000 to complete the second half of the Puterbaugh Middle School roof, according to city documents.

The money is derived from sales tax returns collected from a sales tax originally passed by city voters on a city question to fund new construction at McAlester Public Schools.

At the time, the school district was having a difficult time meeting the 60 percent of the vote threshold required to pass a school bond issue.

The state legislature has allowed for school-related measures to be considered as a city vote, it its agreeable to both the city and the school district. When the measure passed, it had allowed for new constriction at McAlester High School, including constriction of the Lucy Freeman Smith center.

Tree removal with Crane - Dayton, OH

The removal of nearly 50 Vallejo trees in recent weeks has raised some eyebrows, and could, at worst land a homeowners association with a city bill for more than $44,000.

Joseph Ramos' mother lives near Sacramento and Redwood streets under a giant looming pine tree with one side of its branches shaved off. Ramos just wants to know if the home is safe during a disagreement with the city and if his mom will finally be rid of a tree-related spider infestation.

Earlier this month, all work removing what remained of 49 mostly Monterey Pine trees -- about 17 of them on city right of way -- came to a grinding halt. Five remained from work that began Dec. 21.

Two trees were left mid-removal, including the one in front of Ramos' mother's

"It's half-way finished. If there's a storm or something, it's going to fall down on the roof," Ramos said.

The Hillcrest Park Homeowners Association's board of directors voted last year for the tree removal. Board members believed the trees pose both health and safety hazards for residents of their 316 condominium units. One tree branch had already broken off onto a resident's vehicle.

However, the homeowners association did not go through the proper procedure to remove the trees. It was required to apply for removal permits at $433 per tree, Vallejo Public Works Director David Kleinschmidt said.

"I think it's fair to characterize this as a misunderstanding," Kleinschmidt said Friday. "The first sentence in

Kleinschmidt added that this is not the first time the city has had a run-in with the homeowners association over trees. He said in May, the city put a stop to the removal of two trees (McCullough said three) until the organization obtained a removal permit. McCullough said that situation differed from the current tree removal effort, because the most recent batch of trees is diseased and in need of removal.
