The Silver Creek Township Board on Sept. 16 authorized a resident identified as Shellquist to place a driveway in the township right-of-way to connect three properties to a new road.
Chairman Mike Helman moved to authorize the driveway placement; Supervisor Andy Christensen seconded and the motion carried 3-0. The board noted that a petition from eight residents and a public hearing will be required to vacate the road and the right-of-way before any permanent vacation can occur.
Supervisor Andy Christensen reported he met with Monticello Fire and the city and said there is a $689 deduction reflected for 2025 and that two years remain on the current fire contract. The minutes do not specify the reason for the deduction or whether it was a billing adjustment or contract amendment.
The board ended the meeting with a motion by Supervisor Ryan Nelson to adjourn, seconded by Christensen; the adjournment passed 3-0. The minutes did not include a date for the next meeting or additional details about timetable for the road-vacation petition or the public hearing.
