New Business
Bob Colson, Dunn County Planner, and Cleo Herrick, Dunn County Zoning
Administrator, spoke to the board and townspeople present about the
current mapping in the Town of New Haven and the process of adopting a
map so the zoning process could move forward.  We are under the
current Dunn County Zoning Ordinance now and when the new one comes
into effect there is a yearlong period in which the Town could decide
to pull out of Dunn County zoning.  There were many questions, answers
and discussion. 

Hanson said he would like the Plan Commission to look it over and then
hold a public hearing. 

Discussion about whether to have the ambulance charges on Boyceville
Fire Department bills itemized out or to have them lumped in with the
bill.  Motion by Prestrud, second by Hanson to have the ambulance
services itemized out.  Carried. 

The clerk told the board that Kistner’s Korner and Gloria Solberg
had applied to have their liquor licenses renewed.  Motion by
Prestrud, second by Siniff, to approve the applications and have them
published in the newspaper as required.  The clerk said the actual
licenses will not be approved and issued until the June board meeting.
 

Brief discussion about cleaning wood floor of Town Hall.  Motion by
Prestrud, second by Siniff, to have the wood floor of the Town Hall
cleaned by Mike Stuart.  

The Plan Commission chairman, Paul Danovsky, told the board that the
Plan Commission had not had a meeting since the last board meeting on
April 10th but they  were going to meet later in the week.  

Hanson asked Lenae Marusak if she would be willing to serve on the
Plan Commission.  Lenae said she would.  Motion by Hanson, second by
Siniff, to appoint Lenae Marusak to the Plan Commission to replace
John Buckner who had resigned due to his family relocating.   

The board approved the bills for payment.  

The next board meeting is Wednesday, June 6th, 2012, at 7:00 pm.
