Hortonville board approves developer agreement, equipment contract and police MOU; sale of small parcel also approved
Summary
At its Feb. 5 meeting the Village of Hortonville board approved a developer agreement with Mutee Construction (Nature’s Haven), awarded an $8,940 actuator valve replacement to Dorner, accepted a police MOU altering a flex position to 80 hours, and waived appraisal rights for sale of a 364-sq.-ft. parcel for $345.80.
The Village of Hortonville board convened Feb. 5 and recorded a series of approvals across development, public works and personnel matters. Trustees voted to approve a developer agreement with Mutee Construction (Nature’s Haven) after staff said attorneys were finishing final wording. The board also approved a contract award to Dorner for replacement of an actuator valve at the plant in the amount of $8,940, citing lead time and compatibility with existing valves.
The board accepted a memorandum of understanding with the Hortonville Police Association that converts a previously 64-hour flex/part-time position into an 80-hour position, a change officials said was intended to reduce turnover; the MOU also includes a change in how uniform allowance payments are handled to reduce administrative processing. The motion included authority for specified village officials to sign on the village’s behalf.
Separately, the board approved a waiver of appraisal and sale of roughly 364 square feet of land adjacent to a bridge/creek related to Main Street reconstruction for $345.80. Board members described the transfer as a cleanup of right-of-way tied to the reconstruction project.
Each motion was moved, seconded and passed by roll call during the meeting; minutes record the chair announcing that the motions carried. The meeting concluded with a closed session called under state statute 19.85(1)(g) and a subsequent adjournment at 7:10 p.m.
