No public comment.
Paying $83,000 plus in bills.
Discussing Right of Way permit for Fidium and a special event permit for Rochs.
They are discussing applying for a safe roads to school grant. #makeithappen
Discussing approving the construction of the Community Center. Jim is stepping down during this section due to a “conflict of interest.” Terri Cummings is running the meeting at this point. You can read the agreement here.
Terri going over the agreement and saying they have discussed the village being fiscally responsible and that village owns the land the building will be built on. Also saying that the village is taking on some liability at this point with the building. Saying the Rec Board has done a good job raising money.
Joe breaking down the agreement. The building will sit on a five acre lot of land. Permanent markers will be installed so the village isn’t in charge of any of the upkeep.
Clark Dietz has put together a list of how the building will deviate from the village’s development standards. Any deviations not in the agreement will need a formal waiver from the board.
