Yes 373 votes No 248 votes No votes 1 Total 621 A total of 622 ballots were cast, including one absentee ballot. Mr. L'Allier mentioned that Springsted, Inc. had called him today; they had dis- cussed the current market, etc., as to whether the bonds should be sold immediately or not. If we go ahead right away, then the bids can be opened on Dec. 8, and there would be a 30-day wait for the money. Mr. Rosengren stated that he would like to get things settled soon since they would like to know where the driveways will go so that the culverts can be bought and put in this fall. Also, the exact spot for the building will be staked out and the landscaping can be done now at a cost of approximately $500.00 and could be paid for later if we so wished. Mr. Rosengren also suggested that the low spot in the 2 -acre parcel be either filled in or dug out for a pond to collect run -off. The Clerk was instructed to call Springsted, Inc. in the morning to arrange that a representative be at the meeting Monday night. It was the consensus of the Council that it would be unnecessary to hire an architect to draw up plans for the building. It was thought that a selected group could come up with the necessary plans. 20 Mr. Rosengren mentioned that it had been suggested that an indoor shooting range for target practice could perhaps be italled at a later time. Mr. Cardinal moved to accept the report of the election judges and to certify the winners as follows: Mayor - -Ralph M. L'Allier Trustees William I. Bohjanen and Ronald J. Jaworski Constable -- Virgil F. Lundberg Seconded by_Mr. Rosengren. Motion carried unanimously. Mr. Cardinal moved to accept the results of the election on the bond issue- - namely that the question passed. Seconded by Mr. Rosengren. Carried. Mr. Rosengren stated that he would like to get some books on equipment to put in the new building. He has been contacted by at least four different companies which put up metal buildings. There was discussion on various buildings which have been seen by Council members. Mr. Rosengren mentioned the new type of infra -red plate heaters which burn gas without a flame and which would be quite useful when working on road equipment in cold weather. Jaworski moved to adjourn at 8:47 p.m. Seconded by Minutes approved at the meeting of November 10, 1969 . Rosengren.
