240 June 11, 1984 On considering the disbursements of June 11, 1984, Mr. Kulaszewicz moved to approve. Seconded by Mr. Reinert. Mayor Benson questioned some repairs done outside the shop on a patrol car - Mr. Schumacher said this was probably something that had to be done in a hurry and the mechanic was not available. Mayor Benson also questioned the check for the folding doors in the new Council chamber - isn't there work to be done on those doors. Mr. Schumacher said, Yes, one of the doors must be reversed and this check will be held until the work is done. The check for Rivard electric will also be held until Mr. Volk returns from vacation to make sure the work is done as was speci- fied. Motion to approve the disbursements carried unanimously. OPEN MIKE Mrs. Morris Carlson appeared before the Council to discuss a problem she has with a neighbor who has a Special Use Permit to have a horse on less than the required acreage. She said he has not installed the proper fencing. Mrs. Carlson said Mn Nelson only had two acres of land minus the part taken for the road. Mrs. Carlson said their property borders on three sides. Mrs. Carlson said she had extended the exist- ing fence twice and Mr. Nelson had torn the fence she had installed down. Mayor Benson asked Mr. Nelson to come forward and present his side of the dispute. Mr. Nelson said he had two strands of wire and the third strand on top is electrified. Mr. Nelson said the Building Inspector had inspected his facilities and had said they were sufficient. Mr. Nelson felt that if this Council wants to revoke his special use permit to have the horse, that's OK with him, he now would qualify under the hobby farm ordin- ance. After some questions and answers, Mr. Reinert felt there is not enough facts in this issue to make a decision, and he suggested that Mr. Kluegel get together with Mrs. Carson and Mr. Nelson and come to some decision on this. Mrs. Carlson pointed out that Mr. Nelson goes outside the fence with motorcycles and snowmobiles. Mr. Marier said that Mr. Nelson did not put the fence on the line and he claims he has 5 to 8 feet outside the fence that is still his prop- erty. Mr. Marier said he cannot tell whether the fence is on Mr. Nelson's property or on Mrs. Carlson's property. Mr. Marier said he did observe that quite a few of the corn rows had been flattened with vehicle traffic. The general consensus of the Council was that no decision can be made on this issue until the location of the property lines is settled. Mr. Nelson said if his fence is on the Carlson property, he will remove it and if his kids are running vehicles on the Carlson property, he will see that is stops. Mr. Marier said a meeting will be set with the two parties involved and Mr. Kluegel and there will be Council representation at that meeting. Mr. Nelson will be informed when this meeting is scheduled
