Town of Ettrick regular meeting minutes for May 13, 2024
Meeting called to order. Members present: John Vehrenkamp, Mike Anderson, Natasha Olson
Others present: None
Motion to accept meeting minutes as presented by Tasha, 2nd by Mike, motion carried.
Astrup Ln Deed Dedication- Bruce Brovold recommends that we vote on it again just as a formality even though it has been done a few years ago. We will table it until next meeting so John can double check a few things they are concerned about with where the line would be.
Arneson Ln extension discussion will be tabled until next meeting when land owners can attend.
They guys are wondering if we can change when payroll is done, they want to have it every other week instead of 2 times a month when we have our meetings. John mentioned having it stay the same except for when there is 3 weeks between meetings and have a check in between there and at regular time. Tasha will talk it over with the guys and go from there.
Tasha wants to know when county needs to know if we are going to do the sealcoating like we had sent plans for or use that funding to blacktop about 2 miles on Emery Rd. John said they need to know soon so it was decided to blacktop from the south end of Emery Rd up to Farm Ln or a mile whichever is further and to come from North end and go in a mile or so. John will talk to Neil at TCHD about this.
Mark Carlson & Nick Gamroth gave John a map at last county meeting that shows the mile radius that is around the village and cities that they can shut down permits that the town approves if they would like. The town association is fighting against this since it doesn’t seem right. We will find out more when there is more information.
David Kvistad called wanting information on driveway permits. John will call him on this.
Tasha said she submitted everything to county for the bridge replacement.
