OLD BUSINESS

            Street Committee did not meet this month, but Jaden reported that the County pulverized portions of Kruger and W Poplar Avenue and that they should be back to blacktop them within a week.

            The Law Enforcement Committee discussed flock camera, shortage of coverage some days, the need to clean up the weed ordinance, Lidar, and the Spillman program. The committee does not recommend getting the flock camera. Adam has placed ads to hire a full-time officer along with part-time officers.

            Dave Ebner moved to approve the purchase of a Lidar system at a cost of $2,125, second Dylan Bahr. Carried 7-0

The Spillman program has an estimated initial cost of $29,500 and an annual maintenance cost of $4,500. Adam is still waiting for updated numbers on the program, so this item was tabled to the September board meeting.

NEW BUSINESS        

            Mark Trowbridge move to approve appointing Wayne Czyscon to fill a vacant election worker position for the 2022-2023 election cycle, second Dave Ebner. Carried 7-0

            Bill Lea wanted to speak about the traffic on Clayton Street, but he was not on the agenda. Mark referred him to the Street Committee, so he will be invited to their next meeting is.

At 6:33, as there was nothing to act on from closed session, there was unanimous consent to adjourn the meeting.
