Zoning Board: There was a complaint about sewage being dumped in Apple Creek off 80th St and Apple Creek Road. The health department will need to be contacted and will need to check with Supervisor Selzler for the name of the person doing the dumping. There was also a complaint about someone dumping sewage on private property. This can be done with the permission of the landowner.
Weed Board: Board Member Mauch was out and marked ditches for weed spraying. He also stated the county does a cost share for Milestone for residents of the county. He said to contact Gary Hartman with the county weed board @220-3857 for any other questions on weed problems.
Assessor’s Report: Assessor Splonskowski had two abatements to report on both were on Burr Oak Loop 1 for Steven & Rodin Swennes @ 8301 Burr Oak Loop for $23,900 assessed for non-existing improvements, the 2nd for Albinus & Teri Scherr @ 8020 Burr Oak Loop for $21,700 exceeding property’s market value. After discussion Supervisor Zent made a motion to approve the above abatements, Chairman Olson 2nd the motion and the motion was unanimously approved. Assessor Splonskowski said there is not much accessing to be done until the county equalization meeting is completed.
Road Supervisor’s Report: Supervisor Schneider said he didn’t have anything new to report. 119th got the chloride treatment but there was a new blade operator and the portion of the road got bladed that had the chloride treatment by accident. 119th paving is still a talk in progress the township is waiting on final costs for the paving to determine a cost share for all parties involved. The board also received a complaint about a lot of dust on Pleasantview.
Building Inspector’s Report: No report due to the absence of Shawn Whitney.
Other Business: Ed Seeburg a resident of Anderson Acres who had a complaint about the constant motorcycle nice coming from his neighbor’s residence. The noise goes on all day and late into the night. He has talked to the neighbor Owen Walker. Mr. Walker’s response is it is his property and he can do what he wants with it. The board said they could not do much right now. There would have to be a change in the noise ordinance and make it stronger @ the annual meeting and election in March of 2017. They also suggested Mr. Seeburg get on the agenda @ a Burleigh County Commission meeting to see if he could get some help from the county commissioners.
Grady Wolf had a complaint about a number of cars being stored on a piece of property by him. There are approximately 300 cars on the property. Brandon Schock said a fence will be put on the propertynorth of Lincoln and the cars will be moved. Ms. Sara Krein from C&K Auto was at the meeting and she stated they were trying everything they could to get the cars off the property. There have been delays from the City of Bismarck and with the engineering firm. She was asking for 2 more weeks to start moving the cars off the property. They have people lined up to haul the cars off the property. The board stated they did not have jurisdiction there and it was the City of Lincoln that would have to be contacted regarding this issue.
