September 24, 2007 Workshop Meeting

TOWN OF FOND DU LAC
FOND DU LAC COUNTY
WORKSHOP MEETING
SEPTEMBER 24, 2007
7:00 PM

The Workshop Meeting was called to order by Chairman Harold Manske. 
Present were Chairman Manske, Supervisors Phyllis Giese and LeRoy
Schmitz, Clerk Patti Supple, Treasurer Mel Buechel, Attorney John St.
Peter, Mike Tolvstad, Chris Kaempfer, Dave Wagner, Guy Schmitt and
Harry Lange.  Confirmation was made of open meeting notice.  

The beginning general comments included, moving the tower to a
different location, a town wide tax, and delaying payment for
transmission lines in front of properties that don’t hook up to water.


Chris Kaempfer discussed locating the elevated storage tank on Brown
Road.  He noted that transmission lines would be run to the tank for
water.  Other improvements would be to fill in dead ends to “loop” the
system which would improve lines on Highway 23, Esterbrook Road, Dixon
Road, Forest Avenue Road and by Arby’s and Culvers, add a 12” line on
Highway 23, make water available to existing subdivisions and new
subdivisions and would allow for hookup to the system if wells fail. 


Dave Wagner discussed the financing options.  One option is to break
the costs into two parts:  system wide costs of @ 2 million dollars
which could be paid town wide and within the utility district, and
individual costs of @ 1 million dollars which affects only the utility
district residents.  ( Individual costs could be deferred special
assessments.)  It was recommended to check with banks on special
assessments and whether they are paid immediately upon the sale of the
property or can be carried.  It was also noted that the initial
funding is a promissory note or anticipation note which is converted
to a bond.

It was decided to have Mr. Kaempfer check into projected costs and
have Mr. Wagner check into financing costs with some being town wide
costs, utility district costs and possible impact fees.  Another
Workshop Meeting was scheduled to review these updates on October 23
at 5:00pm.

Clerk Supple presented an update on the Town’s Association Christmas
party.

The recycling/garbage pickup requirements were discussed.  It was
recommended to obtain proposals for pickup weekly with rolling bins
for both recycling and garbage, weekly garbage pickup and every two
weeks pickup for recycling (with rolling bins), and garbage pickup
only.  Proposals will be sent out.

Compensation for employees was discussed.  The recommendation was to
give Rocky Schmidt a $.25 per hour raise and a $1000.00 savings bond. 
Treasurer’s Assistant Jody Roffers will be offered $20.00 per hour to
assist with tax collections and tax related duties beginning October
15, 2007.  After January 1, 2008 her duties will expand to include
learning all duties of the Treasurer’s position.   This will be an
open term of employment with a minimum 30 days notice written notice
of termination.

There being no more business, motion was made and seconded to adjourn.
 Motion carried.

Submitted by Patti Supple, Town Clerk
