5. Hard copies—The unapproved agenda and treasurer’s report will be available 48hrs before the town meeting each month for those who wish to view or print them off. We have had people ask for hard copies of things so Karpen is putting together a proposal of Freedom of Information Act for next months meeting. Karpen is proposing if you want a hard copy then you need to fill out a form of what you want and give it to a trustee or Swenson. Sherman has a right to recover cost of looking up the items and sending them out. Karpen is proposing $13.00 an hour at a minimum of 2 hours, $1.00 per sheet, plus postage to cover the cost of having somebody look up the items and print them out. Karpen stated other towns charge more for this. Also Sherman will charge $1.00 for copies made of agendas, treasurer’s report and minutes-- they will be posted on the website for a person to make a copy for themselves if they wish to make their own copies.
6. Spray for mosquitoes—Braun has been spraying in the past, Karpen will give him a call. Karpen will send out a city wide text when Braun sprays.
