Public meeting was called to order at 7:30 P.M. by chairman Pajala. Purpose to receive public input on the use of ATV’s on town roads.He gave tentative rules for the meeting and explained that legally the final decision would be made by town board.

Several letters were read from property owners not in attendance. Comments were received from practically everyone ranging from being completely for all town roads being open to ATV travel to being completely in favor of all roads closed to ATV travel. Final discussion concerned the town board appointing a committee to try to resolve this problem. Everyone was in favor of this and several people volunteered. Mike Sorenson, Joe Gerwood, Dick Michalik, Richard Kluge, Peter Sockness, Tom Cogger, Steve Terry, Ron Bartholemew, Jeff Casey, and Joe Scholl Jr.

Motion by Casey and a second by Badura to close the public meeting. Motion carried. Badura suggested we open all roads. No response.
