The overhead doors need to be repaired as the bottom thresholds, cable, pins are not working
properly. Mick Simonson asked for a bid from Lake Country Door on new rubber thresholds,
cables and pins for S3336.00. Jon Eckel made a motion to accept the bid from Lake Country
Door LLC for 53336.00 to repair the overhead doors at the shop. Chris Nelson seconded.
Passed.
Talked to Tony to look grader, has loose tie rods, pins and play in tire. Mick would like to
order parts through Green and then Tony would repair at the Town Shop. Mick would like this
done before grading in the spring. Mick Simonson also stated that the air conditioner does
not work and the grader is starting to show its age.
Page 1 of 3
Noble tire in Barron for new tires for the grader, they go thru Bauer Built which we do not
have an account set up. The Clerk would be able to set up the account with Bauer Built. Tires
from Bauer Built would be 52404.00 each with State discount with S100.OO service charge and
StSO per tire to mount. As example of what the tires could cost, Balsam Lake township paid
SSSOO a piece for tires.
Chris Nelson brought an idea of obtaining quotes for used graders and trading in the Town of
Milltown's grader. Mike Dau will check on used grader prices.
Tommy from Monroe Truck stopped to discuss with Mick Simonson on a competitive check on
Monroe trucks costing 56OO for one and $ZSO for both trucks. Board decided that it was not
necessary at this time.
John Christianson stopped to talk with Mick Simonson and stated that the Xmark mower
should be traded in sooner than later. Mick Simonson willget a quote for January's meeting.
lf over 525,000, then we will open for bid.
At the Beach, people are parking all over and Mick Simonson is worried about them taking out
sewer vents. He willtake the loader out and bank up the parking area in order to keep people
from parking all over.

done. Suggestion that we should get a hold of Monarch to do the blacktop and
be put on the list.

services to the campground unless the Town of Milltown annex the property. The
