CLERK REPORT – The clerk reported that she provided OPPD the input requested about the new transmission lines study for 18th Street area, provided the information to Sunlight Access on FOIA request and finished the Quarterly reporting for the Federal and State agencies. The clerk also asked for a secondary message board site possibility since she’s been having a difficult time getting the proper documents from the USPS management company that owns the post office. Village Maintenance Report – Heyen reported that the well house pumped 1,434,000 gallons for 264 hours. 1,392,000 gallons of wastewater went through the lift station.

Heyen also reported that the water line reroute and plumbing project at the concession stand restrooms is nearly complete. Fire/Rescue – NTR Union United Inc. Report: Business Meeting to Follow New Business: Nolan was present along with another Cougar Baseball Board member to discuss the progress and needs for the ball field improvement project. Light replacement bulbs were purchased by the Village and NPPD will assist with the replacement when the field is dry, hopefully prior to the April 30th season start. Nolan said that repairs were done to the mower used to drag the field with the cost being $386.93. The Board agreed to pay for the chipped rock to go under the stands and around the dugouts. Cougar Baseball can have it delivered and spread. They will need help moving the stands out of the way. Heyen will use the town tractor. Nolan expressed that he would like to start on the batting cage installation so it will be operational for next season. Fundraising will defray the overall cost. He would like to get one tunnel and net ordered this year and the footings in place. The project will need about 25 yards of concrete along with rebar and will cost approximately $4,000. The Village agreed to insure the equipment. The clerk explained that the Village didn’t have the funds to replace the outfield fencing this year, but that the Board can budget $14,000 for the upcoming year. Nolan said that with the Board’s permission, he would like to install the sponsor signs on the outside of the pavilion until the new fence is installed. Feek motioned to adjourn at 7:51 pm. 2nd by Fritschle. By Roll, Trustee votes as follows, Seyler – Aye, Feek – Aye, Fritschle – Aye, Ruby-Absent, Hill – Absent. Motion approved.
