Frederic board refers Frederic Motel licensing question to Governance Committee
Summary
The board voted to send concerns about the Frederic Motel's status and signage to the Governance Committee after hearing from the Fire Chief and noting that a building advertised as a motel may now function as apartments.
The Frederic Village Board voted Feb. 10 to refer questions about the Frederic Motel’s current licensing and classification to the Governance Committee for further review. Trustees said the motel’s sign remains on the building, at times covered or lit, and that if the property is no longer operating as a motel it should be considered an apartment building.
Fire Chief Brian Daeffler attended the meeting and discussed inspections of apartment buildings; the minutes state that Chief Larson informed the board of rights granted under state statute relevant to inspections and licensing. The board carried a motion to send the matter to the Governance Committee for investigation and any recommended next steps.
The referral is procedural: the board did not itself change the motel’s license at this meeting, instead asking the Governance Committee to gather additional facts and advise the board. The minutes do not list a deadline for the Committee’s review or any immediate enforcement action.
