Scott Pleges talked on what AFLAC Insurance has to offer workers. The clerk said that she had contacted WTA and Carol Doran from the Dept. of Revenue and both had said that if it was not a town fringe benefit, we should not be doing automatic withdrawal from employees’ checks.
Alan Albee from Eagle Waste said that they are interested in submitting a proposal for the waste and recycling contract when it comes due. When asked he said that they would haul to waste to the Lincoln County Landfill and that they absorb all recycling payments.
Thomas and Shirley Jahn were present to question the cutting of trees on the road right-of-way on Peaceful Valley Road adjoining their property. They asked that the road be moved to the north to avoid cutting and that if we moved the road we could continue to use their property for the turn-around. Koth said that he had walked the road and that we could not move the road over as the power poles would be too close to the road and WPS would charge approximately $5,000.00 per pole to move. He also said that we have to keep the right-of-way clear due to liability issues and to keep ice off the road in the winter.
A notice will be placed in the next edition of the Tomahawk Leader seeking proposals for waste and recycling proposals.

The amount paid for renting Kahle Park by ARM for Harley weekend will remain the same.
