There was one correction to the minutes to the previous meeting--the LP storage tanks mentioned are Co-op not FS.
OLD BUSINESS
The vet is coming the 12th of June to vaccinate dogs. People will pick up '67 tags if they had shots last year, and '67 tags will be issued to owners whose dogs receive shots. Mayor Stratton will put a notice in the Press about the availability of vaccinations.
Bill Bream objected to storage of pgs down by the LP tank saying that a limit should be put on what Co-op is allowed to build. He suggested drafting them a letter saying that the tank is not fenced. If it is finished to fence it and if not not to use it. The letter would put a 30 day limit on a reply from Co-op.
The clerk read a reply to Mayor Stratton's letter to the Iowa League of Municipalities. It cited ordinances of towns that have adopted ordinances regarding keeping of animals in town limits.
Jim O'Toole made a motion to pay election clerks and judges $1.00 per hour for elections. Bill Bream seconded the motion and it carried.
NEW BUSINESS
Mr. Tometich brought a copy of the approved contract for engineering services which is acceptable to FHA. He commented on comprehensive plan and said the bid docket was the most important thing at this time.
Jim O'Toole recommended that a polite letter be sent to the Johnson County Development Association saying we can't see paying $500 for fees. It will be some time before they get to problems concerning us. Mayor Strattons said that we say we have not budgeted the money for it. We would remain on the board but probably wouldn't have a vote. Bill Bream resigned from the board. Jim O'Toole made a motion we accept his resignation and Ted Spivey seconded it. The motion carried. Ted Spivey made a motion that the council approve Mayor Strattons appointment of Frank Jedlicka to replace Bill Bream. Glenn Potter seconded it and it carried.
Bill Bream made a motion we sign engineering agreement for Powers. Ted seconded it and it carried.
Glenn Potter made a motion the council approve applications for cigarette permits for The Lark, Frank's Service and Jessie Madden's Grocery. Ted Spivey seconded it and the motion carried.
