          Neosho voters reject use tax; Granby voters approve bonds for wastewater system

          Neosho voters reject use tax; Granby voters approve bonds for wastewater system

          NEOSHO, Mo. — For the second time in a year, Neosho voters have denied the passage of a use tax.

          Neosho voters were asked to pass a rate that mirrors the city's sales tax rate, which currently is set at 2.5%. That rate would have been automatically adjusted if the sales tax was increased or decreased.

          According to complete but unofficial results from the Newton County Clerk, the measure failed by a vote of 340 to 348. The slim margin was similar to a loss in April's election, which was 320 to 335.

          Mayor Bill Doubek said the result was disappointing. He and members of the Neosho City Council were hoping to realize revenue for additional police officers and other expen

          "We're going to have to sit down as a council and regroup," Doubek said. "We've had this on the ballot twice, and it's failed twice, and I don't know if it's in our heart to bring up a third time."

          City officials have cited purchases from Amazon and other internet sellers as a main reason for declining sales tax revenues, and the use tax is intended to recover that lost revenue.

          In other election results across Newton County:

          • Voters in the city of Granby approved a measure that asked to authorize about $3.24 million in general revenue bonds for upgrading and extending the city's wastewater system. The vote was 146 to 96, passing with a 60.33% approval.

          • Joplin residents who live in Newton County approved Prop B by a vote of 590 to 160. The measure establishes a sales tax to fund firefighter and police officer pensions.

          • Eighteen voters in the village of Stark City approved instituting a sales tax and use tax of .5%. No one voted against the measure.

                  Southwest City awarded grant for water system overhaul

                  SOUTHWEST CITY, Mo. — The U.S. Department of Agriculture has announced a $2.228 million investment in the water system for Southwest City in McDonald County.

                  The department will provide the city with a $1.554 million loan and a $674,000 grant through its Water and Waste Disposal Loan and Grant program. The funding will be used to make improvements to the city's water production, treatment and distribution system as its aging water tower, distribution lines and equipment are not able to effectively or efficiently serve residents, officials said.

                  “Modernizing the infrastructure that delivers safe drinking water to rural Missourians is vital to the public health, economic development and prosperity of the state’s small towns and cities,” said Jeff Case, the USDA Rural Development state director for Missouri, in a statement.

                  Improvements in Southwest City will include replacing 5 miles of water distribution lines, line looping to reduce water loss, constructing a well, and taking an older well and water tower out of service. Installation of new flush hydrants, new meter sets and a connection to a neighboring water district also are included.

                  "It's going to allow for our water and sewer treatment plants to run more efficiently and cut the overall expenditures of our water (system)," City Clerk Krystal Austen said. "It's also going to affect how we treat our water. A few years ago, one of our wells tested with E. coli, and we had to do additional treatments to that. We'll be putting in a new water tower away from the well that's been compromised and ... that will make for safe drinking water."

                  Austen said work could begin in early 2021, with a projected completion date by mid-2023. Residents may see higher water rates to help the city pay back its loan, but the system improvements are expected to produce cost savings to residents in the long term, she said.

                      State audit of Purcell city government begins

                      State audit of Purcell city government begins

                      By John Hacker | news@joplinglobe.com Jul 1, 2021

                      PURCELL, Mo. — Darrell Wilson was concerned several months ago that the streets weren’t being maintained in Purcell and that city leaders weren’t giving him the answers he sought.

                      So he collected signatures to have the state auditor’s office come in and look over the city’s books.

                      Now as a newly elected City Council member in Purcell, Wilson is glad to hear that Auditor Nicole Galloway’s office will be performing that audit.

                      Galloway announced in a news release Thursday that her office has begun an audit of the city.

                      “I’m just glad they’re doing it,” Wilson said. “I was hoping they’d get started a long time ago, but like I said, I hope they don’t find anything wrong, I hope they really do. If there are things wrong, we need to find out what.”

                      Galloway’s office said it had verified 84 signatures on petitions, more than the 64 signatures required by state law for a town the size of Purcell.

                      “The petition audit process allows citizens to be engaged and ensure accountability with their local government,” Galloway said. “I look forward to conducting this independent review, and I encourage anyone with information to contact my Whistleblower Hotline.”

                      Individuals who would like to provide information for consideration in this or any audit may contact the Whistleblower Hotline atmoaudit@auditor.mo.gov or by calling 800-347-8597. Concerns may also be submitted anonymously online at auditor.mo.gov/hotline.

                      Town tumult

                      Recent revelations and criminal investigations seem to justify Darrell Wilson’s concerns.

                      Late in May, the former mayor pro tem, Nancy M. Wilson, 50, was arrested on a warrant charging her with felony stealing. She is not related to Darrell Wilson. She is scheduled to be arraigned July 7 after having posted a $2,300 bond in the case.

                      The arrest was the result of an investigation by the Jasper County Sheriff’s Department that began in mid-April when current Mayor Kelsey Freelend reported finding some suspicious checks drawing funds from the city’s checking account at Southwest Missouri Bank.

                      According to a probable-cause affidavit, the checks were signed by Nancy Wilson.

                      Detective David Lewis of the sheriff’s office wrote in the affidavit that he found five checks and a debit receipt that drew funds from the account between March 13 and April 10 of this year and were signed by Nancy Wilson.

                      The checks, which ranged from $200 to $500, all lacked a second signature as required by city policy and were deposited into Wilson’s account at Arvest Bank, according to the affidavit. The debit receipt showed that Nancy Wilson withdrew another $400 cash from the city account April 2.

                      The affidavit indicates that Lewis obtained surveillance video footage of the debit card transaction at the Southwest Missouri Bank in Carthage.

                      The total amount of the theft as determined by the investigation was $2,588. The affidavit states that Wilson has been arrested previously in a felony theft, although a check of electronic court records in Missouri did not show any criminal case convictions.

                      Darrell Wilson said his suspicions started well before the former mayor pro tem was arrested.

                      Concern about costs


                      Freelend, who was elected with Darrell Wilson and nearly the entire current City Council in April, said she understood why residents wanted the audit, but she’s concerned about the costs.

                      Darrell Wilson said he’d been told the audit could cost Purcell between $20,000 and $30,000. Freeland said she had been told the cost could be between $35,000 and $50,000.

                      Freelend said the city contracts with an outside auditor for annual audits and that those showed nothing suspicious in past years.

                      “I feel like for the citizens the audit is an OK thing because the citizens deserve to know that the city is where it needs to be or if it’s not,” Freelend said. “But as the current mayor of the city going through the audit, no. From what I understand they’re only going to be going through 2021, so they’re not even going to be going back in years previous to see if there was anything deceitful or done wrong, so we’re going to be paying between $35,000 and $50,000 for an audit for just this year. We’re a small town. That’s a lot of money for a city our size, so as the mayor, no, I don’t think it’s a great idea.”

                      Freelend said she too has a lot of questions about how the city has been run in the past, but she was hoping to find a less expensive way to get some of these questions answered.

                      Darrell Wilson said he too was concerned about the cost, but he hoped the audit would restore residents trust and faith in their city government.

                      Efforts on Thursday to contact the state auditor’s office for clarification on the cost of the audit or how far back in time the office was looking were unsuccessful.
