The regular monthly town board meeting was called to order at 7:00 p.m. by Chairperson Mike Julson, all board members were present.  Motion by Lenny Watson/  Leo Musiedlak to approve the agenda for this meeting.  M/C.  Minutes of the July 17, 2008 regular monthly town board meeting were read by the Town Clerk and approved with a motion by Watson/Musiedlak to accept the minutes.  M/C.  The financial report was read by the Treasurer and accepted with a motion by Watson/Musiedlak, with the following balances:  Now account-$5,445.83, M/M account-$62,641.26, Berry Ridge Parking fees-$3,647.36, and Certificate of Deposit-$14,602.98. M/C. 

 

Old Business:  Five  township property owners (Linda Wencka, Jay Hammerly, Rosemary Carlson, Dennis Schmitz & Paul Armson) voiced concerns to the town board, ranging from wondering if the town would  in the end be responsible for some of the expenses of the dam removal and creek restoration, if Chris Murphy states,    by replacing the road and installing a culvert some funding would be lost for this project?  Where is the creek restoration starting and ending, is it still the original plan that was shown at the first meetings with citizens?  When will the road be put back in and how long will it take, and what happens if it is not replaced, what is the plan then?  Are any of the town board members monitoring the progress of the project?  What is the town receiving for the $25,000 of engineering expenses from MSA?  The culvert should be put in as simple and inexpensive as possible, and ACL&W should be putting this project of removal and restoration out for bids. And last but not least Mr. Musiedlak was encouraged to use his common sense as a member of the board that he used as an officer of the Adams County Sheriff’s Dept., and keep this town moving forward and getting something accomplished.  Mr. Armson presented the town board with his hand drawn “conceptual” plan for replacing the road and installing the culvert very simply and less expensive.

 

There was no new business at this meeting.  Motion to pay the bills by Musiedlak/Watson.  M/C.  Motion to adjourn at 8:15 p.m. by Musiedlak/Watson until September 18, 2008. M/C.
