Daylight savings time starts this weekend and we meet Monday night at 7:30 on March11th.  Winter has been mild, but rainy.  Certainly not what you expect when Thanksgiving is around in November.  Costs of plowing and sanding should be minimal. So lots to be happy with as spring is just around the corner.

I want to thank everyone that came out to our February meeting.  It was a very civil meeting and we had a very healthy discussion on where we wanted to be as far as building a highway garage, drilling a well, and updating equipment. In today’s political environment it was very gratifying to have a disagreement that led to discussion , then to compromise, and a resolution to reject the bids we had. We also voted to rebid a different size, scope, and placement of a highway barn that we think will fulfill our needs for years to come.  We currently are out to bid, and we expect to award the successful bids at the April meeting if they fit the criteria of the goals we set at our last meeting.  Hope people will come out and join the discussion.

The well we accepted the low quote on, has now been drilled.  People driving by can see it is an artesian well.  So from all the experts I’ve talked with; that could always run over , run over in wet weather only, or when everything is hooked up and being used there is a possibility it works like a regular well.  The absolute great news is that we have a great water source that can be hooked to both buildings that should meet and probably exceed our needs.  Mission accomplished.
