5. Committee Reports
1. Roads:

Lou feels we should look forward and not back on roads.  There are double the residents in the area from just a few years ago.  There should be a future plan to maintain roads.  Sharon Dixon has asked the board and announced to the public that to preserve her integrity and avoid a “conflict of interest” she would abstain from voting on any road matters.  Sharon ’s son Shane works with Crown Point who is submitting a proposal for outside contract work on the roads.

Mike suggested using a private contractor to maintain roads.
