State inspector halts work on commercial garage; local business expresses interest in cemetery‑adjacent land
Summary
The board heard that a state building inspector placed a stop‑work order on the Waldo Service Garage commercial project because the inspecting agency lacked commercial approval; no action was taken. Greg Kanz of GK Machine LLC expressed interest in buying village land by the cemetery to build a shop.
President Gary Dekker told the board that Waldo Service Garage had received a building permit from Witkowski Inspection Agency but a state building inspector issued a stop‑work order after determining the project is commercial and Witkowski was not approved for commercial inspections for the Village. Dekker said the state inspector is working with the garage to resolve the issue; the board took no formal action.
During public comment, Greg Kanz of GK Machine LLC told the board he is interested in purchasing Village land adjacent to the cemetery to build a shop. The minutes record the comment but show no motion or follow‑up action on the land interest during this meeting.
Trustee Dennis Reinemann also reported that Waldo Service Garage contacted him directly. Reinemann said blacktop sinking from a fiber installation by H & H must be repaired before the Hwy 28 project begins, per the state highway department.
No timeline for resolving the stop‑work order or for any potential land sale was provided in the minutes.
