Intern Cammilleri will make corrections to the draft as discussed and pass it onto Jim Richie at the DNR then onto the Plan Commission. Director Dolezal suggested that the Waterford Master Plan Map be updated so we can move forward on a final layout. The pedestrian bridge and Optional Footbridge should be deleted for cost reasons. Motion made by Czuta, seconded by Houston to make corrections to the Village of Waterford Comprehensive Parks and Open Space Plan. Motion passed 4-0. Discussion was held regarding changing the Public Works and Utilities Committee monthly meeting time to a later start per Steve Denman’s request. Start time will remain at 4 p.m. If Chairman Denman officially steps down, the Board will have to assign a new member. No motion is necessary to keep the same time. Discussion was held on 2013 Wisconsin Act 25 to keep customer information private. This could affect how the deferred payment plans are handled. If they go in front of the committee they become part of public record which could violate Act 25. Director Dolezal gave his report. After a third quote is obtained for aggregate concrete the project is ready to move forward sometime in August. He is having difficulty getting the materials for the landscaping project at Village Hall Park, but once he secures the materials, he can move forward. Rural Water has been able to identify two substantial leaks located at Main Street and on a private residence in the Rivermoor subdivision. Main Street leak is scheduled to be fixed next week and discussion with the private residence still needs to take place. Water loss has decreased from 25% last year to 20% this year. We want to be at 15%. Discussion was held on connecting the Trailside Elementary trail to the We Energies Right-of-Way. Houston confirmed there is a school meeting this week to investigate the possibilities. Motion made by Czuta, seconded by Koeller to adjourn the meeting. Motion passed 4-0. Meeting adjourned at 5:25 p.m. Respectfully submitted, Stephanie Charapata, DPW/Utility Clerk
