Treasurer’s Report– Due to the New Year’s Day holiday, the bank statements were not ready in time to prepare a report.

Patrolman’s Report– Many problems were incurred during snow removal for the December 20 – 22nd snowfall. Eric and Wayne both were stuck. The Freightliner had to be towed by L&S Trucking of Juda . Dan Reeson helped with his equipment as did Travis Leonard. Wayne paid Mr. Leuschow $100.00 out of pocket for his help and will be reimbursed for that. The Waste Management dumpsters were not removed on Monday as was previously arranged. Nancy will call them again.

Plan Commission– Update on Database Hiring- Dan Reeson told the Board that there were eleven applicants to help prepare the parcel database.

Steve Hermanson move to hire Dawn Doran to help with parcel database work, Dan Truttmann 2nd. Motion carried.

Public Comments– The dusk to dawn light on the shed is not working. Dan Reeson will call someone to fix it.

Old Business

  1. Dan Truttmann move to approve the 2013 budget, Steve Hermanson 2nd. Motion carried.

New Business

  1. Amend 2012 Budget- Because the treasurer didn’t receive the December bank statements, we didn’t have a December treasurer’s report, and therefore, were unable to amend the 2012 budget.
  2. Review New Recycle Information- The information received from Pellitteri Waste Systems seemed to speak to residential pickup rather than a drop off site. Steve Hermanson will contact Tim Bolhuis to obtain the proper recycling information.

Adjournment– Steve Hermanson move to adjourn the meeting, Dan Truttmann 2nd. Motion carried. The meeting was adjourned at 8:59 P.M.

Respectfully submitted,
Nancy Anderson, Clerk
