(Motion carried 5-0). D. Recognition of City Hall Volunteers Councilman Graves recognized that there is a plan to install a plaque into the City Hall with the names of the volunteers who have worked on City Hall. Graves suggested to show the City's appreciation that a thank you certificate be sent to the volunteers. These could be printed up with the name of the individual on parchment bond paper and mailed out. Mrs. Rob Enes spoke for her and her husband who have volunteered many hours staining the woodwork. She felt the idea was nice, but the building really was their thanks and they were so proud of the fact that they worked on the City Hall. Mayor Christ stated there would be a recommendation from this Council to provide a recognition party for all the volunteers. At that time there will be special presentations given out to those individuals. Councilman Graves and Moe felt that a party at City's expense should have been brought up because they did not know a party was being planned. Moe felt a party was a neat and terrific idea even though he was never in favor of the building. D. Update on Lake Jane Councilman Johnson updated the Council that on January 8, 1987 the DNR issued an order to the VBWD to turn off the Lake Jane pump because they were in violation of the permit. The VBWD is trying to work with the contractor to see if they can improve on the June 1st date for completion.
