Wallace board places budget on file, approves claims and allows resident to remove park concrete
Summary
By unanimous consent the board placed the budget/financial report on file and approved claims as listed; trustees also voted to allow a resident to remove concrete at the park (motion passed 3-0-1 with one abstention). The board discussed replacing ball-field lights but took no formal procurement action.
At its March 11, 2025 meeting the Village of Wallace Board of Trustees placed the budget and financial report on file by unanimous consent and approved claims 'as listed.' The minutes include a claims list with amounts for vendors and payroll, including Sargent Drilling ($14,275.89), Schaben Sanitation ($4,248.63), Hild Propane ($3,784.17), and payroll of $6,772.59.
Trustee Brian Banks moved to allow Gene Holm to pay for and haul away concrete at the village park; Trustee Christina Daniels seconded. The motion passed with a 3-0-1 tally, with Trustee DoAnn McDonald recorded as abstaining. The minutes record the authorization but do not specify insurance, time frame, or restoration requirements.
The trustees also discussed the need to replace lights at the ball fields; the minutes note the discussion but do not record a motion, funding allocation, or timetable for replacement.
Why it matters: Approving claims and filing the financial report are routine fiduciary actions that clear payments and maintain financial oversight; authorizing a resident to remove park concrete is a specific maintenance decision with potential liability and cost implications, which the minutes do not further detail.
The board set the next meeting for April 8, 2025 and adjourned at 8:48 p.m.
