Road Discussion:  Roger said the only project that we will be doing at this time is the culver on Moravian Road. This will be sometime late August or Early September.  Roger also said that he will have the Boom mover come for the ditch on Pleasant corner and Foster Road and any other spot that looks like it is needed.  Lindsay asked about the cattle pass on Edlin lane.  Roger said that as soon as the funds are available we can do that cattle pass but this year funds are short due to the smart growth planning that has to be done this year.  Joe asked about cost sharing for the cattle pass.  Roger said yes their will be cost sharing any time you put a culvert in 36 inches or larger.  Joe said that he was approved to put up a fence along that road so he would need that to stay a cattle pass for grazing on the other side of the road.

Out off all that were sent 100 came back that is a pretty good response 28 people have volunteered to help work on the project and many more would like more information.  The next step of the process is to put this information gathered on the surveys into the database so the company can analyst the information and send us the documents with percentages for each area for the different groups to work from.  She will continue to keep us informed of the progress.  Mary Ann also asked us to commit ourselves to one of the committees as board members we are required to be on one.  Roger will be Economic growth, Joe land use Lindsay Infrastructure Sharon economic growth Patty social and cultural. Mary Ann asked if any of us know of any one else that did not receive a survey please let her know so that she can get one.  Mary Ann is trying to get the Stockholm Merchants Associating to let us put a link on their web site for us.  So that we can put our minutes and meeting notices on the web site.
