4/24/72 Mr. Bohjanen stated that at the next Council meeting he would ask for names of persons to serve on a 5- member committee to be set up to coordinate recreational activities for youth of the area with the Park Board. Mr. Bohjanen noted that tonight was the closing of taking applications for the new Assistant Police Officer, and recommended that he meet the Police Chief, the Personnel Commission and any other Council members who wish to come, to con- sider the applications, for approval at the next meeting. He asked the Clerk to make copies of the applications for each of the members and a copy for the Personnel Commission. Mr. Bohjanen mentioned receiving a copy of a letter from the State of Molin Con crete regarding whether their sewage facilities met with PCA requirements, and asked if anyone remembered whether Molin got approval the the time. It was noted that there was no PCA then. Mr. Locher read the letter and said he would check into the matter. Mr. Bohjanen mentioned that we had 1 more Council meeting before the Board of Review on May 9th. It was felt that sending notices was unnecessary due to the County sending out cards to everyone advising of the meeting. Mrs. Swanson asked about the different dates listed in the County's letter on this, and was told that that was the period for all the Review hearings in the County, as they did not have enough personnel to hold all of them on one night. Mr. Marier moved that we adopt the new rules made by the Plumbing Inspector, that the Clerk make copies and attach them to all plumbing permits. Seconded by Mr. Cardinal. Carried unanimously. The Clerk read the letter from North Central Public Service requesting approval of buried gas lines in Shenandoah, Chomonix and along Birch Street, and read Mr. Gotwald's letter recommending approval. Mr. Marier moved to go by the Engineer's recommendations on this request and approve it. Seconded by Mr. Jaworski. Carried unanimously. Mr. Bohjanen noted that the Deputy Clerk doing evening work does not with to do any day work. Mr. Jaworski moved to advertise for a new Deputy Clerk. Sec- onded by Mr. Cardinal. Carried unanimously. Mrs. Swanson moved to amend the above motion by adding that it should be included in the advertisement that the applicants should have all clerical skills includ- ing bookkeeping abilities and shorthand, and that the ad be placed the three lo- cal newspapers. Seconded by Mr. Marier, Carried unanimously. The Clerk asked for clarification on the duties of the Deputy Clerk. It was decided that the applicants should betold that the hours are flexible, and that the new person might take over the P & Z and special evening meetings. Ken Gourley asked that more money be released to pay off $1109.35 in bills for more materials for the house he moved in. Mrs. Swanson asked if he had the siding on yet; Mr. Gourley said no, that the siding was on the site, and he expected to have it on the house in 35 -45 days. His bills were examined amid discussion. Mr. Cardinal noted that it was nice that Mr. Gourley was doing something on the house every day, and moved that we release $1109.35 to Mr. Ken Gourley. Seconded by Mr. Jaworski. Carried unanimously. Some $800 remains. Mr. Cardinal asked if the Council would nominate someone to serve on the Rice Creek Watershed Advisory Board.
