The Public Works Committee met at City Hall in the City of Black River Falls on March 19, 2008 at 6:00 P.M. Alderpersons Austin, Rahmlow, Danielson, Olson, and Mathews were present.
- Todd Gomer, Street Superintendent, reviewed recent activities of his department. Sewer mains under the streets being resurfaced in 2008 have been televised and are in good condition. Sewer mains are currently being jetted.
Darren Durman represented the Downtown Association to request permission to replace the decorative trees in the downtown area. The proposal calls for ornamental pear trees which grow up instead of out (wide). The trees flower, turn green and then turn bronze in the fall. The trees require little maintenance and are the same as those in front of the Evangelical Lutheran Church.
- It was moved by Alderperson Olson, seconded by Alderperson Mathews to approve the Downtown Association request as above. Motion carried
- One of the full-time Street Department employees will be on sick leave this summer. Mr. Gomer requested an additional seasonal employee be hired during the absence.
- It was moved by Alderperson Mathews, seconded by Alderperson Danielson to approve the seasonal employee as above. Motion carried.
- There will be a bid opening on April 25 for the streets to be surfaced this year. The bid specs are available at City Hall.
- Mayor Hunter reviewed the electrical costs for the trail lights and aerators at Lallapalooza.
- It was moved by Alderperson Mathews, seconded by Alderperson Olson to adjourn. Motion carried.
