favor: None Opposed: Motion carried.
Centennial Banners: During the process of ordering the Centennial Banners, four were ordered that had never been confirmed which left the Village paying the bill @ $95.00 each. It is suggested the Village pay an additional $20.00 each to have the business names removed so the banners can be used by the Village.
Williams suggested storing the banners to be used if one of the active banner holders wants to replace theirs if it gets damaged or worn out.
The Clerk-Treasurer spoke as a resident and said the Village has already spent money for the banners and it makes more sense to her to pay the additional $80.00 to get the banners functional instead of storing them.
Motion: Rutta/Garski to spend the additional $80.00 and have Welcome printed over the business names so the banners can be hung on Highway 66 with our seasonal banners.
Williams and Moore
opposed: All others in favor: Motion carried.

Motion: Moore/Kaminski
to pay the bills as read. All in
favor: None opposed: Motion carried.

Williams suggested Zdroik sale the triangle portion to the Village and they would grant an easement for access to the largest part of the parcel adjacent to the pond. Zdroik requested the easement be wide enough to enter with a car.
