The Crow Wing Township Board of Supervisors held its Regular Meeting on Tuesday, January 5, 2010 at 7:00 p.m. at the Crow Wing Town Hall.  Present were Chairman Greg Smith, Supervisors Mark Platta and Dave Schultz, Clerk Virginia Rogers, Treasurer Susan Goodew and those on the attached public roster.

 

There were no gopher bounties requested.

 

DOG CONTROL

 

The contract offered by HART for their services was reviewed. The cost of $1.50 per capita plus individual animal costs were considered and found to be more than the board is willing to pay for the services provide. Ginny was asked to look into the following: Check for lower rates to make costs reasonable, using another entity - possibly Little Falls, the possibility of repealing the ordinance, check animal welfare statute, find out how many dogs were picked up last year and how many calls there were, information on giving free dog licenses, so the township would have a record of licensed dogs and find out if unlicensed dogs could be euthanized.

 

GARBAGE COSTS
Greg shared some cost information on dumpsters. He is still waiting on some of the information from Waste Management. He will also check with Blue Lakes Disposal to see what their charge would be for a 6 or 8 yard dumpster.

 

Dave gave the road report. He was asked to talk to Dale and find out why some of the roads have not been scraped down.

 

The charges from CGI for sewer permits and inspections were considered. The additional expenses will be discussed with Megan at the Planning Commission meeting.

 

The minutes of the December 22, 2009 Regular Meeting were read and amended. Mark made a motion to accept the minutes as amended. The motion was seconded by Greg and carried by unanimous vote.

 

BIG WOOD TIMBER

The board was informed that no one from Big Wood attended the public hearing for the new Conditional Use Permit. A special on site meeting had to be held to determine progress made on the property. The board discussed at what point they would have to physically shut down the business if satisfactory progress is not achieved.

 

Correspondence was reviewed and claims were approved and paid.

 

The meeting was adjourned at 9:00 p.m. by general consent.
