01-25-95 special tbJanuary 25, 1995
On the above date New Scandia Town Board held the continuation of
the Special Meeting of January 24, 1995, regarding the petition
which was presented at the January 17, 1995 Town Board meeting,
for placing Option B on the March 14, 1995 Election.
The following Board Members were present: Chairman, Charles
Nordin, Edith Hadlich, Kevin Nickelson, Paul Rasmussen and Duane
Thompson.
Duane Thompson made a motion to accept the petition and instruct
the clerk that Option B, Providing for the appointment of the
clerk and treasurer, be abandoned for the government of the town,
be place on the March 14, 1995 Town Election and a provisional
election for the clerk and treasurer on the ballot, with a one
year term for the clerk and a two year term for the treasurer.
Kevin Nickelson seconded the motion and motion passed
unanimously.
The question of cost for changing this position to elected was
discussed. Duane Thompson stated that in his opinion the cost
will be terrific if we get a new clerk, due to the time required
to train a new person. Mr Al Goodman referred to the petition
as a personal vendetta and this does not consider the
ramifications to the community. A good clerk can make the
board's job easier. Charles Nordin stated it is hard for him to
say it will be cheaper money -wise.
Paul Rasmussen made a motion to adjourn, Kevin Nickelson seconded
the motion and adopted.
