OLD BUSINESS: Jay will set a date/meeting with the townships attorney Tinti to bring him all the paperwork that we have on the easement issue. This will be tabled until next months meeting.
-Fish called Scott Swanson about the chloride for our gravel roads. Swanson said not to waste our money. The road commission gets it from Skytta’s and it will be too expensive and a truck to come will be a big expense also.
-The farmers market will be tabled until next months meeting.
-K&N was the only bid for the replacement of windows at the town hall. The quote was $47,500.00. After
discussion, the board decided to leave the windows and put a bid out for siding and rot repair around
windows that need it. Wahmhoff motioned, seconded by Janda to bid out siding and repairs instead of
window replacement. All in favor, motion passed.
-There were no bids for tree removal. Look at the trees when the leaves come on and maybe tree trimming might be an option.
-One bid from Royal Lawn Care for the amount of $3,000.00 to clean up the Skanee cemetery. Wahmhoff
motioned, seconded by Eliason to approve Royal. All in favor, motion passed.
