TOWN OF HANSEN MEETING MINUTES Paul Goldberg, Chairperson * Pamela Martinson, Treasurer * Diane Kohls, Clerk * Wayne Brock, Supervisor * Daniel Madsen, Supervisor August 11, 2026 Board Members in Attendance: Paul Goldberg, Pamela Martinson, Wayne Brock, Dan Madsen & Diane Kohls Board Members Excused: None Others in Attendance: Mike Grosskreutz, Ralph Hamel, Amy Denzine, and Brian Denzine Call to Order: Chairman, Paul Goldberg, called the meeting to order at 6:00 p.m. Approval of Clerks Minutes: The minutes from the July 14, 2026 meeting were read. A motion was made by Dan, seconded by Wayne, to approve the minutes. Motion carried. Expenditures and Treasurer Reports: A motion was made by Wayne, seconded by Dan, to approve the expenditures and Treasurer reports. Motion carried. Correspondence: There are two new contacts for Waste Management, Josh Standal and Stephanie Luebke. Paul received calls about solar ordinances and brush on the corner of Grant and Oak Roads. Paul got a hold of Pittsville Fire & EMS to get their budget. 33.3% is paid to Pittsville and the rest goes to Vesper for fire budgets. Road and Maintenance Concerns: Scott Construction finished chip sealing North Road. Duane picked up the blades from the County. Two of the culverts on Jackson and one on Tamarack were done by Wood County without approval. Their estimated cost was way higher than Kolo so Paul will discuss it with them. Pay current bills: A motion was made by Dan, seconded by Wayne, to pay the current bills. Motion carried. Old Business: None New Business: Paul would like thank you cards sent to all of the businesses that donated to the WTA meeting and the guest speaker. Pam already sent thank you cards to the businesses and she will send one to Ryan Brock, the guest speaker. Paul mentioned that Diane would like a new computer for elections. Diane is going to see if she can get one through a grant. If she can’t get one through the grant, then she should just purchase one. Public Input: Ralph asked about the county doing the work without authorization. Paul told him that the county estimated $10,000 per culvert and Kolo would do both for $1320. It was just a misunderstanding and Paul will work it out with them. Brian Denzine was concerned about the road that they live on not getting graded enough. When they last came to the board meeting they were told it would be done more frequently and it has only been done once. They would like it graded once per month. They live on Maplewood Road (the dead end portion by Poplar Lane). Paul will ask Duane to grade that road more often. Next agenda items: LP prebuy, Preliminary Budget Numbers Next meeting date: September 8, 2026 @ 7:00 p.m. Adjournment: A motion was made by Wayne, seconded by Dan, to adjourn the meeting. Motion carried. The meeting was adjourned by Chairman, Paul Goldberg, at 6:31 p.m. Respectfully Submitted by Diane Kohls, Clerk, Town of Hansen
