Platt. Those present were given copies

Larry Johnson
told the group that a group from the ball league was going to paint the dugouts
and bleachers weather permitting. Ward
Odom said that no word has been received from TydenBrammall in regards to
donated manpower help for the park. He
felt that the town tractor could be used to dig out the area by the concession
stand and forms and cement work could be done by the town and volunteers.
Town Manager
Ward Odom passed around another map concerning the areas of the Emerald Ash
Boar infestation. It appears that the infestation is spreading
Louise Brock
inquired about the $24,500 from the Steuben Community Foundation for the
playground equipment at Hardy Park. The Town Manager said that the play
equipment needed to be ordered and wanted to be sure of their selection. The selection was verified and it was decided
to put the brown plastic mulch under the play set. The town will check with Gayle Shultz about
railroad ties to encircle the area. Cost
of mulch will be explored with a company in Edgerton.
The skate
board ordinance became too involved and another is being drafted. Signs have been posted in Hardy Park, but we
need sometime of ordinance for violators.
Sarah Odom
from the Hudson Auxiliary passed out a paper giving information about a
proposed Halloween Town Festival being planned for October 27th. She explained some the events being
tentatively planned and invited anyone interested to come to a meeting on
September 9th at 6:00 pm in the Town Hall. The group would welcome any interested in
helping.
