next on the agenda was the supervisors’ input period. Ron reported that the crew will be ditching and grading to Rochester Mills and back. After that they will be working on Hetzler and Braughler. Bob suggested that due to the most recent events, the contractor should work on Burns Road before Snyder. He also requested that there be dust suppressant sprayed on Sheesley Road.

During the citizen’s input period, Cody Mumau, one of our EMS Coordinators reported about their most recent quarterly training. He also reported that the emergency authority should be handed over to the townships soon. There are still a lot of questions with not a lot of answers. Cody was nominated by Grant Township to serve as our emergency authority representative, but he politely rejected it. He suggested that Doctor Spencer was on the steering committee and would be a good fit to continue his work, and he lives in our district. Next, Neal Weaver reported on some disturbing happenings regarding his neighbor Mike Hampton. Mr. Hampton’s property is at the intersection of Nashville and Pinevale. Many neighbors have complained about a rat problem, stench from excess horse manure, and the possibility of possible stream and water contamination from the multitude of undesirable vehicles. There has also been scuttlebutt regarding the disposal of human waste products being improperly disposed of. The board suggested that Mr. Weaver and all concerned neighbors call the Office of Planning and Development, the sewage enforcement agency, the Department of Health, and the conservation district for a stream water sample.

Next, the treasurer’s report was read, and a motion to approve the report as read was made by Stacy and seconded by Bob.
