He also fixed the water leak at Pugsley's, he replaced the setter and lid. 5.Bill Pay-Councilmember Huggins reported that the bill pay option we have now is not working well, we have a lot of confusion. I will like to change the bill pay providers to xpress bill pay. Xpress works with Polaris so it will work better for us. Xpress is $100.00 dollars a month and a 3% fee for the customer and a $1500.00 set up fee. The council agreed to pay the set up fee, the monthly fee and the 3% fee so the customer doesn't have to pay the fee.

Road Update-Mayor Huggins reported the trees that hang over the road by the 4-way stop as you come into town and Ed Rogers's home are starting to crack. Dennis gave us a bid of $450.00 to cut the big limbs. Samantha Britt and I went and talked to Ed, we didn't know where the property line was. Ed declined to talk to us and asked us to leave his property. I talked to Hansen and Associate about getting a survey to see where the lines are. The survey will cost $1,500 to $1,700 and will take 2 weeks. The council suggested contacting an attorney first.
