Water/Wastewater Report: We are not having any issues with the water. The Lagoon is shut down at this time. If we don’t get too much rain, we will leave it shut for the summer.
Street Maintenance Report: We have a few trees that are needing to come down. Kevin will contact some people to get this done as soon as we can.
Cemetery Report: Have a few graves that have sunk a little. Kevin will be working on those. We received a gift of $20.00 from Jennie Moss and $50.00 from Sue Sprague. These are greatly appreciated.
New Business: Kevin is going to be finding some to work on the tractor as he needs to get the mowing done at the lagoon and around town.
