Ron reported on the call about tar on a vehicle, a property owner questioning the detachment process and a tree on 295th which was determined to belong to the property owner. After some discussion it was determined that the property owner wishing to detach from the city, must petition the chief administrative law judge and then a copy must be sent to the clerk. The Township can then decide whether or not to accept the petition. Erv was asked to check a bent post on Arctic and 295th. Carr’s has done the spraying.
