April 12, 2006

Commissioner Ciesielski called the meeting to order at 4:30 p.m.

Present: Commissioners Ciesielski, Hinz, and Pisarski
Absent: None
Also Present: Lynn Tamblyn, WRCSD; Attorney Christopher Geary; Duane Erickson, Operations Superintendent; and Debbie Crawford, Administrator

Pisarski motioned to approve the minutes from the March 08, 2006 meeting as printed, seconded by Hinz. All in favor. Motion carried.

Tamblyn did not have anything to report on WRCSD.

Attorney Geary opened up for discussion several recommended changes to the proposed ordinances by Erickson and Crawford. After receiving the Commissioners input, Geary will proceed with the final ordinance re-codification.

Hinz motioned to keep the connection fees at the present rates, seconded by Pisarski. All in favor. Motion carried.

Pisarski discussed the motion from the April 22, 1998 minutes that moved to limit the term of President to no more than two years. In April 2000 the length of the term limit was changed from two years to three years. In 2003 Ciesielski was again elected to the position of President for another three years. Pisarski expressed his concern that it would appear that the Commission is running improperly and not abiding by the term limit that was previously set by the Commission. Ciesielski stated that the minutes from the April 22, 1998 meeting setting the term limit is incorrect, that the motion was to set term lengths. Ciesielski also stated that there were suppose to be corrected minutes, but there weren't any minutes or documentation supporting this. Pisarski wanted to make clear that his concerns have nothing to do with or any blame being placed on Ciesielski or any other predecessors and would like to correct any appearance of impropriety. Motion was made by Pisarski and seconded by Hinz that the office of President shall be elected annually during the Commission's April meeting and that the offices of Secretary and Treasurer shall be appointed annually during the Commission's April meeting and that the occupant of any offices shall be eligible for re-election or re-appointment thereto without limitation. All in favor. Motion carried.

Pisarski would like to see a procedure in place for someone chairing the Commissioners Meeting in the event the President cannot be in attendance. Pisarski motioned that in the President's absence Crawford will call the meeting to order and then appoint a Commissioner as acting President, seconded by Hinz. All in favor. Motion carried.

Motion was made by Hinz and seconded by Pisarski that Pisarski be President. Hinz and Pisarski in favor. Ciesielski opposed. Motion carried.

Pisarski would like to state for the record that his becoming President was not an agenda; he was not seeking, promoting or campaigning for the position. Pisarski stated that he has the greatest respect for Ciesielski and that he has done an exemplary job as the past President. Pisarski feels the Commission should be grateful for his services. Having said that, Pisarski accepted the position of President.

Motion was made by Ciesielski and seconded by Pisarski that Hinz be appointed Treasurer and that Ciesielski shall be appointed Secretary. All in favor. Motion carried.

Under O&M Erickson stated that they have been having some problems with the rain and water infiltration into the sewer system. They have located several sump pumps hooked into the sewer and letters have been mailed to these residents for removal of such.


Correspondence consisted of:

· Two (2) letters from Hostak, Henzl & Bichler
· David Lackey
· WRCSD Agenda & Minutes

After Crawford read the letter from David Lackey and the Commissioners reviewed the attached map, it was decided on a Hinz/Pisarski motion that the District would not be interested in purchasing this piece of property. All in favor. Motion carried.

Accounts payable were approved on a Pisarski/Hinz motion. All in favor. Motion carried.

Pisarski motioned to adjourn at 5:45 p.m., seconded by Hinz. All in favor. Motion carried.

Respectfully submitted,

Debbie Crawford
