The board made the decision to not pursue getting a credit card at this time as we would have to put down someone’s personal information on the application and could be held liable for the bill.

New Business:  Mark Breznick sent in a note stating that they had a valve that needs to be replaced at the sewer plant and it is in a tight spot so we will have to get a small excavator to come and dig it up. He sent in an estimate for the total cost of between $1050 and $1200.  Dennis made a motion and Scott seconded that they have Mark get it replaced. With no other discussion motion carried. (2/0)  

Mark also sent a note that during the recent Safety Audit it was suggested that we purchase and post signs at the sewer plant about unauthorized entry.
