Utilities: Dennis has made and installed manhole extension rings prior to
street work being done; he has moved the sandbags from the lagoon area,
there is 91-92% accountability for our water usage this month; and he has
mowed around the lagoon area.
Street repair: patching has been done on many streets, the major work will
be done after the county road work is done. Some streets need to be bladed
before paving.
Frederick Forward: Tracey Olson represented this group. They will have a
financial statement of FinnFest by next meeting. She asked for comments
regarding the event, improvements to be made or any negatives about the
events. The council has been invited to their next meeting on the 20th. They

NEW BUSINESS:
Library Report: The finance office presented the quarterly library report to
the board.
2010 prelim. budget: The finance officer presented the 2010 budget to the
board. These are the figures that will be used for at least the next 2-3
years.
Library Board- Coralie Anderson spoke for the library board. The School is
not taking any action on the combining of the 2 libraries until their new
board is in place. Many aspects were discussed concerning the financial
responsibilities of the town, hours of librarian, archival materials, and
the name.
Variance request- Gary Peterson inquired from the board whether he needed a
variance for development on his property. He is switching the driveway to
the east/ west side from the street to his new home. He is also approx. 15’
from a power pole at the edge of the property. Finance officer will look up
to see how the ordinance reads and the process of the variance.
