Next members reviewed the Wind Energy Company, John Belson touched on how the project would run.  The Company is Emergent Energy, he said they would hire company’s to come in and do as much or as little as we need them to do.  Wind Energy received 11 grand to do the study by square mile. Belson said Russell Martino talked with the company “Emergent Energy” and Belson said  we should set up a Ethic’s Board.  What impressed John wsas how on the ball they were.  Belson is expecting something soon in the mail from them.

 Members then touched on the water and how carlton residents want to tap into our water system and they would have to pay 600.00.  But Belson said , that carlton  had there chance to work with us and they didn’t want anything to do with it, so now the residents are calling us and complaining.

 Members talked about the Cell Tower, Chairman Lamay asked if there was anything new with that.  And they said no.

 Next members talked about the Special Use Permits, Ed Michel’s brought up Mike Boring and how it’s a slap in the face to us because he is running his business from his basement and he still has 2 trucks in the driveway.  Chairman Lamay said he would give Dan a call about Kim Russo, because kurz said, he knows she still has dogs.

 Members brought up the house on hall rd, that they built for Brew Baker.  And the members went over Kepner, the challenges between him and Blyer who just bought the house from his father.
