The Village of Hortonville Board voted on a series of contracts, reimbursements, policy amendments and emergency-repair invoices at its June 19 meeting, approving each item as presented.
The board approved a consent agenda that included the June 5 regular meeting minutes, licenses and permits, and presentation of accounts and claims against the village. The board then approved the low bid from Northeast Asphalt for milling/overlay work on John Street and Fountain Court with additional storm-sewer work for Fountain Court; the board was told the storm-sewer work is intended to capture high sump-pump flows that are eroding the road. The board also approved an amendment to clarify pool-fill credits and approved a reimbursement to a developer for stormwater upsizing in Terrace Manor capped at $71,360 under an existing developer agreement.
Separately, the board approved multiple emergency and maintenance invoices: two excavation invoices for an emergency hydrant replacement and a sinkhole repair; an invoice for dam crack sealing; two variable-frequency-drive (VFD) replacements (one for a digester blower and one for well No. 2); and renewal of the two‑year siren maintenance contract. The board also approved a Small Business Development Grant agreement with the Wisconsin Economic Development Corporation (WEDC) as presented, subject to any attorney-recommended edits that WEDC accepts, and accepted a certified survey map (CSM) for 458 North Crest Street.
All recorded motions were carried by roll call. The board recessed into a closed session under state statute 19.85(1)(c) to consider personnel matters and later adjourned the meeting.
