Todd motioned to transfer $5,200, second by Scott. All present in favor.
Jeff, Keith and Brian from the Pioneer Grounds spoke of their interest in our town hall. They are currently working with the City of Perham Parks and requested that we wait 6 months before demolishing the building. They also asked if the township would be willing to donate a portion of what it would cost us to demo it to help with their cost to move it. The 3 supervisor agreed that we could help with that cost. Todd motioned to push out our date until July 1, 2025, Brett second. Brett suggested to them to check with Pro Contractor’s out of Menahga as they have a large crane that could lift the building for transport.
Todd mentioned that on 10/16 Jeff Holmer caught another beaver in Collette Creek culvert, this should be the last one this year.
Dan also bladed the Fire Rd and next year we need to probably gravel it. Todd also flagged the irrigation well area for snow plowing and the 5 ton signs are now up on all the roads
Having no further business, Todd made a motion to adjourn. All present in favor.
Respectfully submitted, Rana Holmer, Clerk
