Village of Millington Board of Trustees met April 9.
Here is the minutes provided by the Board:
Call to Order: Doug Holley called this meeting of the Village Board to order at 7:00 PM.
Roll Call/Establishment of Quorum: Present were Trustees Beverly Casey, Brad Pekoc, Pat Aloisio, Jordan Thibault, Kevin Jensen and Yvonne Roller. Sandy White, Treasurer present. Lenée Kissel, Clerk Present. No attorney present. Mayor Doug Holley present.
President’s Comments: Doug received a letter from Fran Klaus with a few plats of survey of the Vine/Bridge Street area. Doug also received a letter from the LaSalle County Health Department regarding free pamphlets on summer safety. Pat said we should get them to be handed out. Doug also stated that he has been playing phone tag with Harold Martin in an effort to get together with Dwight Baird to have a meeting.
Trustee’s Comments: Kevin stated that this would be his last meeting as he is moving to Texas on April 20th. Kevin also stated that he has a Wacker compactor in the Village Garage. He will sell it to the Village for $700. Pat asked if the Village needed it. Doug stated that we used it once last year and that it’s nice to have but he isn’t sure if we would use it enough to warrant buying it. Doug stated that the Board would pass at this time. Bev stated that there should be a rule that if anyone leaves the Board they should turn over all papers and keys. Brad asked if Kevin has any information that he needs to turn over and he said he did not. Bev also stated she called off road companies to see if there were alternate places kid could ride so that they weren’t riding in town. She says that those companies told her that they didn’t want those riders at their establishments because they don’t sound safe or like they follow the rules.
Citizen’s Comments: Tanya Grayson and her husband sell some baking products through the BP. They have been using Knutson’s commercial kitchen because the county requires a commercial kitchen to sell their product. Knutson’s is going out of business so they need their own commercial kitchen to keep selling their product. Doug has already told her she would need a special use permit. She was given instructions on how to move forward. The only fee that Doug found was a $50 fee for a special use permit. Clerk added she would be billed for the notice in the paper. Pat asked if there would be customers at the house and she stated no, that all product is delivered. Tanya was advised to get signatures from neighbors, and make sure that she brings that to the May 7 Zoning Meeting. No more citizens’ comments.
