The regular meeting of the Town Board of Burnhamville was held April 29, 2025 at the Burtrum Community Center. The meeting was called to order at 7:00 p.m. by Chair Mike Berscheit. Members present include Supervisors Mike Berscheit, Joe Muellner and Bruce Johnson; Clerk Shirley Hulinsky and Treasurer Pam Throener. Also present was Erv Herdering.
The minutes from the regular meeting of March 25, 2025 were approved on a motion by Sup. Johnson and second by Sup. Muellner. Motion passed.
For correspondence the township received email that Planning and Zoning denied the two requests from township land owners. Jasen Braun would like to try again with a revised plan he worked with county officials on a new design and he was requesting township approval for this modified plan. The supervisors reviewed plan. Sup. Berscheit moved a motion to approve this new design and Sup. Muellner seconded the motion. Motion passed. Clerk will pass approval notice along to county planning and zoning. There was a phone request for reduced price on dust control spraying and a request for signs marking where creek goes under the road. The supervisors discussed and decided to not start offering reduced prices on spray areas because of natural land formations and not to mark creek. As the township is spraying some large areas the board would like more residents to pay for the spraying in their area.
A motion was moved by Sup. Berscheit to pay all bills numbered 6812 through 6828 totaling $20,643.05. Sup. Johnson seconded the motion. Motion passed.
The supervisors would like to get another trailer to use for cleaning up debris along roads. Sup. Berscheit received a quote for a trailer. After discussion that this was a good price, Sup. Johnson moved a motion to use savings to purchase the trailer from The Trailer Center. Sup. Muellner seconded the motion and upon vote motion passed.
The board was presented with a ditch mowing contract. Sup. Muellner moved a motion to accept the contract from KB Specialities and Sup. Johnson seconded the motion. Sup. Berscheit abstained from vote because of being involved. Motion passed.
Annual road inspection was held and the board reviewed list. Contractor will start on improvements.
