Will Cox, who is working on his Eagle Scout Award, attended the meeting to request permission to build two picnic tables for the park this summer with his estimated expenditures being roughly $400. The Board was very open to this request and Chairman Nuss signed approval for him to begin.

D. Nuss met with Scott Hrabik to look at the scope of work that is needing done for street repair on Second Street. Roughly 75 feet of curb and gutter may need cut for water drainage and also mentioned to extend second street out passed the manholes, east beyond Railroad Ave. to eliminate the road gravel that ends up in the sewer line extending out to the lagoons. Hrabik will work up options in a design package for the Board to discuss and vote for a final decision to be submitted for bids.

The water tower was discussed concerning the best options for removing the graffiti that was added. An internal/external inspection of the tower is also due to be done, and perhaps a total repaint of the tower. The last paint/inspection was in 2014. Companies are being contacted for availability and bids to do this project.

Board members discussed putting up street signs and will decide a date that will work in their schedules.

Hannah Peterson attended the meeting showing interest in amending the current Ordinance 6-201-204, that would allow residents to have chickens on their property. She will be looking into additional information to present the Board at a future meeting.
