Old Business: The Board of Review went well and we appreciate the hard work our assessor Kurt Moeller does for our town. The Annual Meeting was held. Thank you to those residents that came out and participated in this. The Spring Election went off without a hitch. We had 173 voters, and the clerk registered several new voters. Thank you to all our election workers who donated their time to help in this important work. The CPA is working on the annual CT form and will be submitting it to the DOR on our behalf in the coming weeks. We have submitted an application for the small structures grant. We will be notified of results in July. New Business: The application has been received by the county for the holding tank. The chair signed this and will personally deliver that plus the check later this week. A sanitary permit was received by the county on behalf of Larry Altman. A motion was moved by Ned to approve this. Seconded by Supervisor Joel Kuehnhold. Motion approved. Recycling Center Updates: The annual recycling unit paperwork was submitted to the DNR by the clerk, and we have received notice back that we will be receiving this grant next year. Sanitary District Updates: The commissioner was unable to attend as he was teaching a community CPR class. He will bring a summary of the new things happening at the plant to the June meeting. Road Repairs and Concerns: We will be doing some weed killing in the ditches prior to brush removal later this month. Grading is underway. We hope to have new road base laid on Tower Rd. by the end of the month. We have reached out to Solutionz LLC regarding some much-needed crack sealing. We continue to work on bringing in the shoulders on Brookside after the washout from recent storms. Several culverts have been looked at and cleaned out in recent weeks. A motion was moved by Ned to purchase a new trimmer for use in the ditches. Seconded by Joel. Motion approved. We received notice that we were not chosen for the LRIP grant we applied for. We will try again next year. Clerk Mail: We have received notice from DSPS that they will be doing an in person audit of the Sherry Volunteer Fire Department on May 13, 2026. This audit is to ascertain whether they properly handled 2% dues in 2025. We also received a non-compliance notice stating we may not be eligible for 2% dues in 2026 due to the Sherry Fire Department Chief not filling out the necessary paperwork for Milladore. The town attorney has been consulted, and he suggests that if this is the final outcome, we have the right to appeal the decision with DSPS as it was through no fault on the town’s end. There was no Public Comment. A motion was moved by Ned to pay bills. Seconded by Ron. Motion approved. The next meeting will be held on June 7, 2026, at 6:30 pm, at the Milladore town hall, 3720 County Rd. P, Milladore, WI, 54454. A motion was moved by Joel to adjourn. Seconded by Ned. Meeting adjourned.
