TOWN OF HAMILTON
REGULAR BOARD MEETING
WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 3, 2022
APPROVE MINUTES
The August monthly board meeting was called to order at 7:30 p.m. by Chairman Blaine Lee and the Pledge of Allegiance followed. Attendance found Chairman Blaine Lee, Supervisors Kevin Hoyer and Paul Degenhardt, Treasurer Katie Reding and Clerk Sara Schultz present. The minutes were read by the clerk and were approved with motions made by Hoyer and Degenhardt. Motion carried. The agenda for the meeting was read by the chairman and a motion was made by Hoyer and was supported with a second by Degenhardt. Carried. There was no public comment.
ZONING CHANGE: Michael Modawell (o/b/o Ethan Modawell) came before the board members with a request for a change in zoning from exclusive agriculture to residential on 1.43 acres (Parcel #7-333-0). Lee stated he doesn’t have any issues for a home to be built on this land since it is not being used for other purposes. After discussion, the board decided to table the request until the county comprehensive plan is completed and then we will revisit this topic.
SPEED LIMIT: Bonnie Schubert emailed her concerns about people driving too fast on Innsbruck Road. Our Ordinance #2019-09-10A states the speed limit on Innsbruck does go to 25 mph. A lot of signs are already posted on the road but we will be asking the sheriff’s department to patrol it more often.
ROAD REPORT: Scott Construction has completed the sealcoating work for the year. There is going to be work completed on Eggens Coulee Road in the next few weeks. Raleigh Rhodes has been working with the road crew. At this time, his road wages will be increased by $1.50 per hour. This will change again if he becomes our 3rd snowplow driver this winter. Lee moved to approve this increase while Degenhardt seconded the motion and it carried.
RECYCLING CENTER: Everything has been going smoothly at the recycling center.
FINANCIAL REPORT: The financial reports were handed out and reviewed. Degenhardt and Lee motioned to approve them as presented. Motion carried. The monthly bills were paid with motions made by Lee and Degenhardt. Motion passed. The chairman adjourned the meeting at 9:00 p.m. and Degenhardt seconded the motion.
