On page three, under Plan Commission Meeting "Date" is changed to read "Data". With this change, the minutes of the April 6, 2006, village board meeting were approved on a MOTION by Short, seconded by Laabs, and carried.

With the addition of a bill for USA Blue Book in the amount of $22.14 for supplies at the WWTP, the general fund, water and sewer bills were approved for payment on a MOTION by Waskiewicz, seconded by Kunstmann, and carried unanimously.

A MOTION was made by Waskiewicz, seconded by Palm, to approve the Treasurer and Utility reports as presented. Motion carried.

Village ordinance allows the village board to permit more than one structure per lot in industrial and commercial districts when needed for the orderly development of the parcel. Laura Logan is requesting permission to add two more mini storage buildings to her parcel at 117 Meadowlark Road. With these two additional buildings, a total of nine buildings will be on the lot. Public safety and access by emergency vehicles was discussed. Logan stated that the fire chief had reviewed the plans before the last two buildings were built and did not have a problem with them. Thirty feet will be allowed between all buildings. Soil compaction was also a concern. A MOTION was made by Short, seconded by Waskiewicz, to approve the two additional structures on the property at 117 Meadowlark Road contingent upon installation of the binder course of asphalt, landscaping, plan approval by Fire Chief and soil compaction approval by the building inspector. Soil compaction information will be added to the plans and concrete will be adjusted accordingly. Motion carried.

A new home for 411 Stoney Creek Court by Lundman Development was approved, a new home for 322 Stoney Creek Lane was approved with a new survey to be submitted to the building inspector before the top of block elevation is set, and the plans for two storage buildings at 117 Meadowlark Road were approved. The Architectural Control Board will continue to review the WUBC code and village ordinance on swimming pools.

Per village ordinance, the building inspector may issue citations with respect to sections of the code that are directly related to his area of responsibility. A MOTION was made by Dohrwardt, seconded by Kunstmann, to instruct the building inspector to issue citations within his jurisdiction. Discussion followed. Dohrwardt amended the MOTION to have it be the priority to have the building inspector issue the citation. Palm will speak with the building inspector and let him know he has the authority to issue citations. Dohrwardt withdrew his motion. A MOTION was made by Waskiewicz, seconded by Palm, to have Palm deliver a copy of the ordinance regarding authorization to issue citations to the village marshal and building inspector. Motion carried.

A MOTION was made by Dohrwardt, seconded by Short, to approve the committee appointments as presented by President Hamm. It was suggested that Public Safety and Personnel committees meet quarterly. The Personnel Committee should also come up with guidelines for bringing new board members "up to speed." Celebrate Fredonia is an ad hoc committee and will remain the same as last year. Dohrwardt amended the MOTION to allow the Clerk-Treasurer to fix any "scribner" errors and to add the Celebrate Fredonia Committee with the members the same as last year. This was seconded by Short. Hamm noted that the Ethics Committee still needs to be appointed and if anyone has any suggestions they should let him know. Our Comprehensive Plan recommends a Joint Plan Committee with members from the village and surrounding towns. He will be recommending members in the near future. The Joint Plan Committee is an advisory committee. Motion then carried approving the Committee appointments.

A MOTION was made by Dohrwardt, seconded by Laabs, to appoint Larry Waskiewicz as president pro tem. No other nominations were received. Motion carried with Waskiewicz recused.

The report from the Director of Public Works was reviewed. Neumann reported that a report would be forthcoming on the well drilling. Nothing was found suitable for a municipal well. An additional signed easement has been received for the sidewalk on South Milwaukee Street. Verbal commitments have been received from the other property owners. It is hoped that the Martin Drive project could be bid in December with construction in 2007.

A MOTION was made by Short, seconded by Waskiewicz, to hire Matthew Dommer and Bradley Mayer as temporary summer help at $8.00 per hour with the Director of Public Works having the option to hire an additional employee if deemed necessary. Motion carried.

When the committee payroll checks were issued, one check was missing from the sequence of checks. The bank has been notified and a stop payment has been placed on the check. The printer has also been contacted. An Open House has been planned for May 6 for the Ozaukee County Comprehensive Plan.

The Public Works Committee will need to schedule a meeting the first week of May to complete sidewalk inspections.

The North Milwaukee Street and Emerald Hills Drive is not a controlled intersection. Laabs questioned if a stop sign should be added to the intersection.

When North Milwaukee Street is extended, a stop sign will be added on Emerald Hills Drive.
