CALL BOARD MEETING TO ORDER
MOTION: to Accept the March 13, 2024, Board Meeting Minutes by Johnson/Ebensperger motion carried.
PUBLIC WORKS -CHRIS ZENNER – Chris reported that we now have to do monthly testing for nitrates He also said that we would be replacing batteries at the ponds and at the campground for the safety lights and other electronic equipment. Clerk Lunda had ordered all the batteries that were needed. More meters have been ordered and Chris will schedule more installs on the old meters that we still have in service Chris was upset that we did not have any sidewalks schedules as we have spent extra funds in the campground, and we don’t have the extra $20,000.00 President Spindler explained to Chris that we can only go by our budget, if we spend more in one area sometimes that limits us in other areas, and we spent more than expected with the campground in 2024.
DISCUSSION: Campground, all backflow protectors were put on every campsite. Earlier in the year we had electrical work completed in the campground to install meters on some of the sites to see how much use some of the sites were using. It was reported that the Dredging Company will be putting in a fuel barrel into the campground area, they are aware of all of the legalities involved with this, President Spindler will be in contact with Mr. Sorenson with the Ellsworth Fire Department to make sure that they are in compliance with all the regulations. The board was okay with the placement as long as they were in compliance.
DISCUSSION: Dredging, it was reported to the Clerk, President, & Public Works Director that dredging will begin in Mid-May or 1st of June in 2024. Update on everything that is happening will come in the June Board Meeting
