Jem Wilson came to the board for approval for a business license to do a drive-in movie theater. They are planning on doing this in the field by their house. The sound will be broadcast through the radio so it won't be a bother to neighbors. They are planning on using flagpoles so they can easily put up their screen/sheet and then take it down so it won't' be up permanently. The board granted permission to give her a business license.
Chris Schulthess got a quote for a company to come clean the water tanks. He estimates that it will cost about $3,000 to video, inspect and clean the tanks. The board thinks that would be a good iea for prevententative measures in keeping the tanks in good shape. Chris is going to follow up on that.
Mayor Scott Sabey presented the resolution to cancel the election this year since we only have two people that are running for board members. Seiko Webb made the motion to approve cancelling the election. Braydon Deru seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously.
Allie Deru explained that we didn't get into the October list for the CIB grant that we are applying for fixing the roads in Woodruff. They have pushed us into the February deadline. Rich County is not a mineral lease development area so we are not at the top of the list for receiving grants. We were told that we would not have received any money during this round of applications. We are hopeful that we may be able to get a loan/grant combination at the February application deadline. The board agreed that it might be a good idea to invite Bill Cox to the next town board meeting, because he may have some other ideas for us pertaining to some options for our road grant.
Monika Schulthess made the motion to approve the October bills. Braydon Deru seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously. Braydon Deru made the motion to approve September minutes. Braydon Deru seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously.
The sprinklers have been blown out at the rodeo grounds with plans to do the park this week. Paul Webb is going to purchase heat tape to install at the town hall.
Meeting was adjourned at 8:00 p.m.
