LAND & WATER CONSERVATION DEPARTMENT
NEW BUSINESS
Raymond asked Heise to provide an overview and explanation of the proposed LWCD budget and other
associated documents that were handed out to supervisors. Heise informed the committee that the budget
numbers presented do not account for staff salary and fringes; the budget numbers only reflect the
operation costs and capital outlay proposals. Heise provided an overview of the LWCD budget. Informed
the committee that the LWCD will notice a decrease in State funding towards the watershed and cost
share programs. Discussion. Motion by Peavey, seconded by Zoerb, to approve the LWCD operation
budget and capital outlay plan as presented. Carried.
PARKS DEPARTMENT
NEW BUSINESS
Raymond asked Heise to provide an overview and explanation of the proposed Parks budget and other
associated documents that were handed out to supervisors. Heise presented the Parks budget, capital
outlay plan, and associated budget comparison spreadsheet. Discussion on prioritizing capital outlay costs
based on safety, maintenance, and improvement categories and rank accordingly. Committee directed
Heise to amend the capital outlay plan and target capital outlay budget to similar numbers as 2005.
Discussion.
Motion by Peavey, seconded by Ruetz, to approve the Parks budget with an amended capital outlay plan
and present this information at the September 6"' LWCC meeting. Carried.
Wildwood Trail grading
Heise informed the committee that he was requested by another supervisor to make grading improvements
on the Wildwood trail. The cost of grading and rolling the surface of the trail would be approximately
$1,220.00. Since the department is over budget in this account, it would be the committee decision to use
dollars in our balance forwards to conduct this activity.
Motion by Raymond, seconded by Peavey, to deny this request. Carried.
Raymond made the motion to adjourn the meeting at 3:02 p.m., seconded by Peavey. Carried.
