Specific Matters for Discussion and Possible Action by Town Board in Open Session:

New Business:

a. The presentation of services offered to the town by Premier Bank was postponed to the April town board meeting.

b. Request V-1-06 for a variance to construct a second story addition to an existing single-family dwelling located at W2430 Main Street in Zachow to be 46’ from the centerline of Hilbert Street where 63’ is required by Jonathon and Alicia Kroening was recommended for approval by the Town of Angelica Planning Committee. There will be no change in the footprint of this dwelling. MOTION (Powers/Lewis/PASSED unaminously) to recommend to the Shawano Board of Adjustment that a variance be granted to Jonathon and Alicia Kroening to construct a second story addition to their existing home located at W2430 Main Street in Zachow to be 46’ from the centerline of Hilbert Street.

c. Tom Maroszek was present in regard to the request of Performance Excavating for a three-year extension of conditional use permit No. C-3-00 to remove sand on approximately 3-4 acres of a twenty-five acre parcel No. 004-03090-0000 located on Elm Road. The Town of Angelica Planning Committee recommended approval of this three-year extension with a change in Condition No. 3 on Shawano County Number CU-24-00 to be changed from “(3) topsoil must be replaced after sand is removed so land can be used again for agricultural purposes” to “(3) the East Central Regional Planning Commission reclamation plan is to be followed and condition (7) to read “Permit extension is good for 3 years. Conditions Nos. 1, 2, 4, 5, 6 and 8 of CU-24-00 to remain the same. Planning Committee Chairman Ferfecki pointed out that there have not been any complaints in regard to the removal of sand by Performance Excavating in the past years. MOTION (Powers/Lewis/PASSED unanimously) to recommend to the Shawano County Planning, Development and Zoning Committee that a three-year renewal to CU-24-00 be granted to Performance Excavating with a change in the conditions as recommended by the Town of Angelica Planning Committee.

d. Ron Krajewski was present and showed the town board copies of deeds dating back to the 1800’s showing easements of a rod and a half over a forty-acre parcel and a twenty-acre parcel that has been owned by his family for years and stated that there was no recorded easement on a twenty-acre parcel owned by the Kowalkowski family which is between his forty-acre and twenty-acre parcels but they had been using a lane, which is still existing, since 1920 on the middle parcel to reach his back twenty-acre parcel. Krajewski is in the process of obtaining an easement from the Kowalkowski’s and was requesting that this easement be less than 66 feet to allow for access to the back twenty. Chairman Smith indicated that the town board would like to discuss this with the Shawano County Planning & Development Department and the Register of Deeds as to the correct way to proceed in this matter.

e. James Lotter, President of the Krakow Sanitary District was present and informed the board that the Sanitary District would be billing the town for one RUE in the amount of $100.00 per quarter starting May 1, 2006. The Sanitary District had not been charging for service since the construction of the Park Pavilion. Lotter gave the board a copy of the Krakow Sanitary District No. 1 Sewer Use Ordinance/User Charge System. Supervisor Powers stated that the reason the town board went with bathrooms hooked up to the Sanitary District rather than going the route of lower cost bathrooms not hooked up to the sewer was because of there not being an installation or service charge to the town for the park being hooked up. No formal documentation could be found supporting any kind of agreement between the Town of Angelica and the Krakow Sanitary District. Lotter explained that the ordinance specifies that no classification shall receive less than one RUE, including seasonally occupied buildings and the Sanitary District Commissioners did not want to make any exceptions to this. The Clerk pointed out that the Town Board appoints the District Commissioners, the District is subject to an audit request by the town board, taxes and delinquent sewer charges are entered on the tax roll and collected by the town clerk and treasurer and the town board holds the hearings required for changes in district boundaries.

f. Chairman Smith informed the board that he had been in touch with Nordin-Pedersen Associates and they will be doing more work on their original plans for the town hall addition and renovation to allow the town board to give that plan out for bidding purposes and also to submit to the State for required permits.

g. The board and Planning Committee Chairman Ferfecki had discussion regarding the creation of a Planning Commission for the Town of Angelica and the ordinance that is required to create such a commission. Ferfecki suggested that someone from the town board be on this commission and he referred to a sample ordinance he had obtained at a recent Eastern Cluster Comprehensive Planning meeting he had attended and also suggested that this ordinance be approved before June 2, 2006. Ferfecki also suggested that there be a meeting between the Planning Committee and the town board to discuss this.

h. There was discussion as to how major repairs or maintenance to the town hall and park pavilion should be handled and who should be hired to do the work. MOTION (Powers/Lewis/PASSED) that any repairs to the town hall or the park pavilion, other than routine maintenance, in excess of $100.00 has to be approved by the town board before proceeding with the work.

i. Copies of the 2005 Financial Report and a draft of the March newsletter had been given to the board for review and there were no recommendations for additions or changes to the draft.

j. No directions had been given the board from the attorneys in regard to the mediated settlement with Tri-County Rescue Squad, Inc. and this will be an agenda item at a future meeting.
