From the desk of Rich Hill Alderman Jason Rich
New exemptions were put in place by determining risk based on credit score. This risk determination is the same system many other municipalities and private utility providers are using. We then found there are some citizens who don't have credit but do have a long history with the city. We are modifying the deposit requirement by establishing good credit with the city. This modification is our own and based on observation over the past few months.
Where is your deposit money should you be required to pay a deposit? It sets completely idle until you disconnect and final bills paid in full or meet the criteria for a lesser deposit. When you meet any of the aforementioned criteria your deposit will be refunded. Some criteria may require another credit score check. The city is not collecting deposits to help pay for any upgrades. In January of 2016, the city was owed $145,000 in unpaid utility bills. Not only was I aware of this before being elected, but the audit brought it up. The citizens petitioned an audit costing $38,000 dollars. I and the auditors wanted to know what we were doing to collect on these monies and how we are going to stop it from continuing. Thus a new deposit requirement and collections were established.

Karsten, 23rd superintendent of the Missouri State Highway Patrol, was sworn in at 3:30 p.m. on March 14, 2017, during a ceremony at General Headquarters, Jefferson City. The Honorable Carol England, Associate Circuit Court Judge--Division VI, administered the Oath of Office to the new colonel.
The ceremony included the presentation of colors by Troop F Color Guard, national anthem sung by Recruit Bradley Lueckenhoff, and invocation by Dr. Wilfred Karsten. Governor Eric Greitens provided special remarks, and Colonel Karsten spoke to those attending the celebration.
“I am honored and humbled to take the Oath of Office as the 23rd superintendent of the Missouri State Highway Patrol,” said Colonel Sandra K. Karsten.
Karsten was appointed to the Patrol on September 1, 1985, as a member of the 57th Recruit Class. During her 31-year career with the Patrol, Karsten has worked as a road trooper in Callaway and Audrain counties. She obtained the rank of corporal and sergeant and was assigned assistant zone commander and designated zone commander, respectively, in Troop F.
In 1996, Karsten transferred to the General Headquarters in Jefferson City. She was assigned to the Field Operations Bureau where she was promoted to the rank of lieutenant and later to the rank of captain. In 2001, Karsten transferred to the Human Resources Division as the director of that division. In 2011, she was promoted to the rank of major and designated commander of the Administrative Services Bureau; then later transferred as the commander of the Technical Services Bureau. In 2012, she was promoted to the rank of lieutenant colonel where she served as a member of the Patrol’s command staff. As assistant superintendent, Karsten acted in the superintendent's absence and had direct oversight responsibility for the Professional Standards Division and Public Information and Education Division. Governor Eric Greitens appointed Karsten to become the 23rd superintendent of the Missouri State Highway Patrol on February 1, 2017. The Missouri Senate confirmed her appointment Thursday, March 9, 2017. As a result of her confirmation, she has been elevated to the rank of colonel. Colonel Karsten is the first female to hold the position of superintendent during the Patrol’s 85-year history.
Colonel Karsten graduated from Putnam County High School in Unionville, Missouri.
