Three other vehicles were marked for
towing. They should be gone by this
weekend.
Mr. Hastings asked Mr. Bunker what
his intentions for snow plowing were.
The medicine has limited him to no snow plowing between the hours of 10
and 7. Mr. Bunker says that with him
working on the weekend, why would he have to pay someone for snow plowing? It was noted that the job had always
included the weekends. Mr. Hastings
asked that should we look for someone else?
Mr. Bunker said if that is what you want, go ahead.
Jan Ellyn Holloway from Fehr Graham
handed out a preliminary engineers estimate for the CDAP construction grant to
submit by the end of the month for the water project for the village. There are several goals. The first is to create a loop from water
tower to School Street. This would
update Carver and School Streets. It
also creates a water main for the new addition. They also want to replace all fire hydrants. Another aspect is to get a valve for the
water tower or well house. They will
also replace the curb stops in the homes.
75% from DCEO for grant money and the 25% are the responsibility of the
Village. This proposal has to be
submitted by January 10th.
The Village has to come up with
$133,612. The cap on CDAP is $400,000
and we must be able to come up with the difference. There is a lot of work to be done to come up with funding. At this time, we will not sign the
resolution. We will have a plan
available and contact the bank. We should
let them know that we have a loan that is almost complete. We also have only 25% of the full price to
pay. The bank is also going to benefit
from the new water system. We have a
team to go to the bank. They consist of
Mr. Hastings, Mr. Croup and Mrs. Mc Phillips.
Once this is done, then there will be a special meeting with Fehr
Graham.
Mr. Ammon is ready to sign the contract. Mr. Broge had a topographical map that he is
concerned about. He’s claiming that the
map cost him $6000. He would like to
see the Village purchase the map. Mr.
Croup explained that we need to have a receipt for the map in order to pay for
it. Mr. Tuell is not willing to pay for
the map and has suggested that the Village convince Mr. Broge that we work on
the project for a bit and then purchase with the TIF money.
STREETS, ALLEYS, BRIDGES AND
SIDEWALKS:
Mrs.Wire has a few proposals for the
lights. We have twelve lights to put
up. There are four poles that need
electric put to them. Total sum is
$1,858.00. Mrs. Mc Phillips made a
motion to have Erner Electric install 12 new Christmas Lights and install four
new receptacles on poles. Mr. Hastings
seconded the motion. Roll call was
made. All were in favor. Motion carried.
PUBLIC PROPERTY, WATER AND SEWER:
Taylor Street – 10-12 firemen will
be going around on Saturday with a petition for the community to get the house
on Taylor burned down.

Nothing
FINANCE AND APPROPRIATIONS:
New water loop has been
covered. We have to look into funding
for the infrastructure. Can we look at
Motor Fuel Tax for the street?
PERMITS AND LICENSE:

OTHER BUSINESS:
The church retaining wall is being
done. They would like to get material
out of the way because the area they want to dump the rubble is too soft.. They would like permission to put the rubble

get done this year. We need another
resolution for next year.
