Waldo utility board hears treatment-plant update, approves $13,446 in vouchers
Summary
At its March 9 meeting the Waldo Water & Sewer Utility Board heard an operations report from Operator-in-Charge Bruce Neerhof (by phone), approved routine financial items including vouchers 9458–9467 for $13,446.07, and authorized staff to notify an account lacking a mailing address.
Operator-in-Charge Bruce Neerhof reported by speaker phone that the village wastewater treatment plant met all effluent limits and that infiltration into the sewer collection system remains at acceptable levels. Neerhof said the plant’s alum dose has been increased to test whether effluent phosphorus (P) concentrations can be reduced further, and that a water tower project with Verizon is tentatively scheduled to begin April 13.
The Waldo Water & Sewer Utility Board approved several routine administrative actions. Trustee Dennis Reinemann moved to approve the minutes of the Feb. 2, 2026 meeting; Trustee Joshua Behr seconded and the motion carried. The board also approved the Financial Report as presented after a motion by Reinemann and a second from Trustee Jerome Hammarlund.
On billing matters, the board approved a motion from Reinemann, seconded by Hammarlund, to deliver a letter to an account that lacks a valid mailing address giving the account 30 days to provide one or face account termination. The board voted to pay monthly vouchers numbered 9458–9467 in the amount of $13,446.07 on a motion by Trustee Michael Hintz, seconded by Behr; the motion carried.
There was no public comment and no correspondence. President Travis Thomas called the meeting to order at 7:27 p.m.; the board adjourned at 8:03 p.m. with a motion from Hammarlund, seconded by Hintz. Clerk/Treasurer Lisa Gillette confirmed compliance with the Open Meetings Law, and no items were placed on the agenda for the next meeting.
