Supervisor Kiner made a motion to approve the lowest bid from Richard Oveson, seconded by Supervisor Stegmeir, motion carried. Supervisor Kiner moved to have North Star Electric come out and disconnect the electric from the old Community Hall but leave a line across the road from the hall for the security lights, seconded by Supervisor Stegmeir, motion carried.
Marlene Tomczak reported that the County inspector was at the hall and approved the work done on the new kitchen. The inspector asked us to check if the MATIT insurance required us to install an Ansell system in the kitchen, the answer was no.
There will be none installed at this time. The county inspector says we should have a license for the kitchen; Marlene will take care of this. There were a couple of options but the one costing $398.00 is the one the board decided to go with which is a small kitchen license. Someone from Falls Fire & Safety will be here this week to check the fire extinguishers at the new building. Chairman Nevalainen will talk with the person who has installed the septic tanks and find out how to get a letter of compliance. We also need one for the well.
New Business –
Local Board of Appeal and Equalization – Clerk Manninen will send a letter to the Assessors office stating that there are no Supervisors currently trained to hold a meeting locally and that the meeting will be held by the county for 2015. Supervisor Kiner moved to have all Supervisors trained in 2015 so that this meeting can once again be held locally in 2016, seconded by Chairman Nevalainen, motion carried.
Chairman Nevalainen moved to adjourn the meeting at 8:48 pm, seconded by Supervisor Stegmeir, motion carried.
Respectfully Submitted
Mary Manninen, Clerk, Kabetogama Township
