Denton trustees adopt surplus-property resolution, set fireworks date and approve claims
Summary
The board adopted a surplus-property resolution for hay sales, set the 2025 fireworks show for July 5, and approved multiple claim lists and payroll at the Feb. 3 meeting. A single $35 bid for hay fell below the resolution’s $65 minimum.
The Village of Denton Board of Trustees adopted a resolution offering eight large round brome hay bales as surplus property for public sale and reserved the right to reject bids. The minutes record a single sealed bid for $35, below the resolution’s minimum bid amount of $65; the resolution directs the clerk to publish notice and set sale terms.
Trustees discussed the 2025 fireworks show budget and approved setting the event for July 5, 2025; the board considered increasing the budget from $4,500 to $5,500 during the discussion. Trustees also approved claims as presented: Claims List A $27,837.77, Claims List B $8,158.25, January payroll $9,386.73, and Keno checking claims $17,157.50 (motion by Doug Rosekrans, seconded by Amanda Fangmeier; carried).
Other routine items reviewed included the annual Keno report for 2024 prepared by HBE, LLC, and a discussion about park and playground improvements with Trustee Amanda Fangmeier volunteering as the board representative for a proposed committee. The minutes note that four hay bales at the wellhouse will be destroyed due to thorny locust trees.
