NEW BUSINESS
Additional Money owed to The Anderson Company for Tree Removal. Clerk Waege explained that the bid for tree removal at 607 Colby Drive that was approved by the Village Board was $4,000.00. Clerk Waege further explained that the Village was billed $4,200.00, of which only $4,000.00 was paid based on the approved bid. Stuvengen explained that the bill was higher because the tree service had to work around the property owner’s vehicle which was left in the way. Motion by Tuffree, seconded by Boyce to pay the additional $200.00 to The Anderson Company, and to add the $200.00 to the original bill of $4,000.00 to be charged to the homeowner. Motion carried.
