Other Business:

• CapX 2020: Concerns had been raised by residents regarding the CapX 2020 transmission lines being installed near their properties. Chairperson Platteter contacted the emergency management and zoning officials at Buffalo County and they were unaware of the lines passing through this area. Supervisor Dienger heard from a source that the lines WOULD go through this area. Interested residents are urged to follow this issue. A website with additional information is available at www.capx2020.com.

• Donation Request by 4-H After School Program: After discussion, the Board declined to act on this request.

• Operator’s License Request of Ashley Becker: After consideration of the application and criminal history, Supervisor Bagniewski moved to grant the license request. Supervisor Dienger seconded the motion (motion passed).

• Roadwork Update/Disaster Declaration:
o Disaster Declaration: The recent heavy rains and flooding caused significant damage to a portion of Waumandee Creek Road. Damage was estimated at between $25,000 and $30,000. Chairperson Platteter submitted a Municipal Disaster Declaration and other associated paperwork to Buffalo County to comply with deadline imposed by the Emergency Management Director. On a motion by Supervisor Dienger and a second by Supervisor Bagniewski, the Board ratified by resolution the Disaster Declaration previously filed by Chairperson Platteter. If the county-wide damage is significant enough, FEMA would provide 100% of the costs of fixing the damage. If not, there is funding available from the State of Wisconsin which would provide approximately 75% of the cost of repairs. Paul Duellman is currently working on getting the road filled in so it can be re-opened.
o Waumandee Creek Road Project: Reglin plans to haul crushed rock next week. Blacktopping will not occur until after Labor Day.
o Weed Cutting: Paul Duellman will cut weeds again sometime in September. Chairperson Platteter suggested that he cut weeds on Waumandee Creek Road prior to the blacktopping.
