June 1, 2009


The City Council met in the Council Room on June 1, 2009 with the following members present: Timothy Anderson, Richard Novotny, Mayor Jamie Englund, Peter Mounts and Erick Sletto and the following absent:  NONE


Others Present: Roy & Sue Sletto, Jerry Buse and Diana K. Olson

The meeting was called to order at 7:00 PM by Mayor Englund who read over the agenda.

 

A motion was made by Novotny, seconded by Mounts and carried to approve the June 1st agenda.

A motion was made by Anderson, seconded by Sletto and carried to approve the May 4th Council Minutes.

 

Pete, Jamie, Jerry, Diana and Bob met to look over and talk about where the catch basin was placed when the 2005 Utility Improvement Project was done.  The water does not run into the catch basin and pools up down by Roy’s driveway.  Roy feels that the catch basin was installed on his property.  Before we try to fix the drainage we need to know if the catch basin is on City property or private.  Jerry will contact Eldevik Surveying to have it surveyed so we know for sure where the property lines are.

 

The City of Brandon wants to do a mutual aid agreement with us for Jerry and his water license.  They are looking to do a contract for 2.5 years with about 4 hours a week for the water department. 

 

A motion was made by Mounts, seconded by Anderson and carried to approve a 1 year contract with the City of Brandon for Jerry and his water license.

 

A motion was made by Novotny, seconded by Sletto and carried to approve Willy Westrom to join the Fire Department.

 

A motion was made by Anderson, seconded by Sletto and carried to pay for one of the two concession stand licenses for 2010.

 

A motion was made by Novotny, seconded by Anderson and carried to pay for ½ of the hot water heater for the concession stands by the baseball field. 

 

The Council had all 3 employee reviews last meeting.  All employees talked about a few issues and it has been going pretty good.

 

A motion was made by Novotny, seconded by Sletto and carried to approve the bid from Master Lumber to put steel above the overhead doors of the fire hall where the murals are due to them deteriorating.  The bid was for $1,437.29.

 

A motion was made by Anderson, seconded by Novotny and carried to waive the 10-day waiting period and 10% to the City from the Christian Lake Longbeards to have a raffle at the Pit Stop Sports Bar on September 12, 2009.

 

A motion was made by Novotny, seconded by Mounts and carried to adopt an AWAIR program for the City of Evansville. 

 

The 4th of July falls on a Saturday so Jerry was wondering if we could use it as a float.  The Council is ok with it but it has to be used in the month of July. 

 

A motion was made by Mounts, seconded by Anderson and carried to approve the June bills and authorize payment. (List Attached)

A motion was made by Anderson, seconded by Novotny and carried to adjourn the meeting at 8:37 PM.
