Waldo trustees approve $328,713.80 in vouchers, clear parking access for medical pickups and table Millpond Dam engineering
Summary
Trustees approved vouchers totaling $328,713.80 and the treasurer's report, voted to place two no-parking signs on Depot Street to preserve access for a resident at 832 W Second St, kept board wages unchanged, and tabled Millpond Dam engineering pending a special meeting with the DNR.
The Village of Waldo Board of Trustees approved paying vouchers 16620–16664 totaling $328,713.80 and accepted the treasurer’s report at its Jan. 13 meeting.
Trustee Steve Bunnow moved to approve the vouchers and Trustee Jerry Hammarlund seconded; the motion carried. The minutes list the voucher range and the total amount but do not include a roll-call vote tally.
The board also addressed a local access concern at 832 W Second St. President Dekker explained that a resident cannot be safely picked up at the front door when the neighboring café is busy, so trustees voted (Trustee Hammarlund moved; Trustee Reinemann seconded) to add two 'no parking between' signs on Depot Street to preserve access to the resident’s back door. Chief Liermann asked that the parking ordinance be updated at the February meeting.
Trustee Dennis Reinemann moved to keep the current Village Board wages; Trustee Steve Bunnow seconded and the motion carried. The board tabled discussion on Millpond Dam engineering and requested a special meeting with Andrea Stern from the DNR before making decisions on engineering work.
The Waldo Fire Department’s LOSA year-end figures were presented by Brandon Berth earlier in the meeting: 19 members (16 at 100% eligibility, one at 75%, two associates at half requirements), three members left during the year, and a total LOSA payout of $10,964 for the year. President Dekker also noted the need for a second check signer after Bruce Neerhof’s retirement and that a trustee is needed to oversee LOSA administration. The meeting adjourned at 7:35 p.m.
