Mr. Cardinal reported that he had received a complaint that a pig operation on Holly Drive was causing an odor problem; he had gone to see the place. The owner had done a lot of cleaning up and the County Health Dept. had in- spected the place but given no final report yet. Mr. Cardinal recommended that we pass on this matter until we receive the County's report. Mr. L'Allier agreed and noted that this was not on the agenda; that when we get the report we can invite the parties to a meeting and iron out the problems. Mr. Rosengren moved to table the matter. Seconded by Mr. Jaworski. Carried unanimously. Mr. Cardinal noted that concerning the matter of sewer and bldg. permits, the P&Z had not met since the Clerk's report; this would be on the next agenda. Mr. Locher reported that he had the policing contract with Centerville ready. Mr. L'Allier asked the Clerk to make copies of the contract for the Council to discuss at our next meeting and to send a copy to Mayor Rivard; Mr. L'Allier will visit with him to see if it is acceptable. Mr. Locher read the 'save harmless' agreement between the Village and Marvin Rehbein which he had drafted for the interim period between starting work and the bond sale on the lateral project. Mr. L'Allier noted that this had been authorized at the last meeting. Mr. Locher stated that he had called both Mr. Rehbein and Mr. Waalen; Mr. Rehbein is in a hurry to start immedia- tely, otherwise he will have to move his rigs. Mr. 'Maslen will contact the Clerk to take the agreement to Mr. Rehbein for his signature. Mr. Jaworski moved to authorize the Mayor and Clerk to sign the agreement. Seconded by Mr. Rosengren. Carried unanimously. Mr. Jaworski had no report. Mr. Rosengren reported that they had completed the drainage projects in the Lakeview area and the park; he thinks the work will take care of the problems. He reported that Mr. Schifsky had started the work on Rolling Hills Drive and should be completed shortly. Mr. Bohjanen had a question on roads, particularly about a hole at Main & 4th, and if Mr. Rosengren had contacted the County on this and the holes in Twilight Acres by the County roads. Mr. Rosengren stated that he had contacted the County men and told them about all the similar problem areas. The Clerk was asked to get a list of all these spots from Roy Backlin and to send a follow -up letter to the County Highway Dept. Mr. L'Allier had no report. Mr. Gotwald stated that he had no special report, but noted that there was a house under construction on 4th Avenue which is in a natural drainage path. The house is being built on a small knoll, but Mr. Gotwald felt we should police the matter in case the man fills the yard up to the ditch as this will cause a problem clear up to Main Street.
