Minutes of February 21, 2019 meeting of the New Haven Town Board
The regular monthly meeting of the New Haven Town Board was called to order at 7:00 p.m. on Thursday, February 21st, 2019 at the Town Hall by Chairman Tory Wolfram.
The Pledge of Allegiance was recited and the Clerk noted that notice of the meeting had been posted in three places and been sent electronically to those on record as having requested such notification.
Minutes of the previous meeting were read and approved by a motion made by Supervisor Bill Ebert and a second to the motion by Supervisor Adam Watson.
Treasurer Conny Crothers presented the monthly Treasurer’s Report which was then approved by a motion from Adam Watson and second by Bill Ebert.
The Chairman invited all present to ask pertinent questions and make appropriate comments on the various items to be discussed.
More Information is needed to clarify the tree cutting bid, so a special meeting of the Board shall be held when we have that information.
Dave Ditter, representing the Lake Mason Management District appeared before the Board asking about the feasibility of a “Slow, No Wake” ordinance. Since, if authorized by resolution, the Lake District may enact its own Ordinances, no action was taken. A Resolution to be adopted by each of the Townships will be drafted. If, and when the Lake District wishes this resolution to be adopted, they will notify each Township involved.
There were several residents of Berry Ridge Mobile Home Park in attendance. They were there to voice their concerns regarding conditions in the Park. The Town has, since May, been attempting to address some of those concerns, but since it is privately owned, the options are limited. Of pressing concern to those in attendance was the condition of the road in the park. Ice has built up until it is very unsafe and emergency vehicles would find it nearly impossible to get to where they needed to go. At the suggestion of Chairman Wolfram, Supervisor Watson moved to have the Town plow truck do whatever can be done to make the roads in the Park safer and passable for this one time. Supervisor Ebert seconded the motion. Motion carried.
Zach Comstock presented the Board with paperwork to have his property rezoned to allow for starting a small business. He was told to proceed to the Town Plan Commission and the Rezoning request would be put on the agenda for the March meeting of the Town Board.
The Clerk requested approval for purchasing election supplies in an amount not to exceed $100. Adam moved and Bill seconded to approve the request and the motion carried.
Bill reported that the sign for the Transfer Site was complete. Tory reported on the brushing and tree cutting bid.
The Clerk presented the monthly bills which were approved for payment on a motion by Bill and second by Adam.
Future agenda items shall include the Comstock rezone request.
The next meeting shall be held on March 21st, 2019 at 7:00 p.m.
Bill moved and Adam seconded that the meeting be adjourned. Motion carried and the Chairman declared the meeting adjourned at 7:56 p.m.
Respectfully Submitted,
Kenneth Crothers, Town Clerk
