Discussion/Possible Action – Jake Weisenbeck’s Proposal to Mow Town Roads:
-Jake Weisenbeck presented his proposal.  He is hoping to start a small business. He would like to cut the brush/trees and manage the brush from not returning by spraying 24D.  He would mow town roads with his large track skid steer with a front end 80” brush mower.  He would charge $90 an hour for the skid steer, brush mower & man.  $100 for cutting brush with 2 men.  There were questions, but no decision was made.

Requesting Input on Buffalo County’s Proposed ATV Routes & Policy/Resolution:
-Dan gave an overview of what the County Resolution entails.  He had talked to Roger Risler from the Buffalo County Trail Riders.  The club would buy the signs.  There was discussion on who should put them up. Evan Mercer from the Pepin County ATV/UTV club spoke and answered questions.  He explained how it would be better if Maxville had our own ordinance/resolution and opened up all roads in Maxville to ATV/UTV’s.  There would be less signage.  Liability was discussed.  Maxville Board is leaning toward opening up all roads in the township and Dan agreed to email Sonya Hansen/Buffalo County Administrator.           

Town Hall Update:  None
Town Road Update:
- Dan reported that Xcel would be putting a new line over Stump Lake and will be using Parrott Ln as a landing site. They would be putting a mat down and shouldn’t harm the road when they do the work.  Dan took pictures to document the current road condition on Parrott Ln.
-The “road closed” signs came and Dan put them in the WM shed along with the flashing lights.  
-Dan & Supervisors will put up the “weight limit” signs.  The posts were gotten from Buffalo Co. Hwy Dept. and we will be billed for them.  They are around $9 and we got 12 of them. 
-Dan reported the chip sealing on Stai & Spring Creek Road was done.  We have not received the billing yet.
-Bruce would like to do some patching on Woodpecker Ln. He had checked out the work Pepin Hwy did on Anibas Rd.  He would like to get 2 or 3 pails to seal at the WM shed so that ice/snow removal goes easier.  He also reported that Pierce Co. will be getting our recyclables & we will go back to the dual stream system maybe first of next year.
