OLD BUSINESS

  1. Fire Siren – Sirens for the town were discussed. The one that had been operating didn’t reach very far. About seven sirens, at a cost of $15-$20,000 each, would be needed to adequately cover the Saxeville area.  This would be an expensive project. No action was taken on the matter.
  2. Land Use Planning Committee – The Town Board hasn’t made any decisions on the plan.  The present Board feels some items are not in the best interest of the land- owners.  The plan doesn’t need to be in place for several years yet.
  3. Road Work Completed in 2003 – Several projects totaling $121,251 were completed.  Chairman Petersen is looking forward to using the PASER program. It is a computerized road maintenance system.  The software is not set yet on the state level.
  4. There was no other old business.

 

NEW BUSINESS

  1. Library – Computer usage has tripled, circulation and inter-library loans are up and volunteers helped with many projects.  Families are enjoying Movie Nights that are being held about once per month. 
  2. Fire Contracts – Fire contracts for Saxeville/Springwater ($31,430.56) and PoySippi ($9,627.43) were to be signed by the board.
  3. Road Work Scheduled for 2004 – About $120,000 will be spent on road maintenance. Prices will be obtained from Northeast Asphalt and Waushara County Highway Department. South Long Lake Road, near Schulke’s, needs attention.
  4. Town Hall Rent – The policy has been set on renting of the town hall. So far, it is not intended for profit making ventures.  The hall has been cleaned well after events.
  5. There was no other new business.
