Public Hearing February 5, 2008 

Rodger Lodholz, Chairman, called the meeting to order at 7:00 p.m. 
The purpose of the public hearing was to discuss purchasing 1.23 acres
from Plum Creek. This parcel ofland is adjacent to and directly west
of the town hall. 
The Clerk reported that in preparation for this hearing she had
researched the property record and found that the parcel is part of a
larger parcel that is in Managed Forest Land (MFL). After discovering
the tax status, the Clerk contacted the DNR. The land cannot be
withdrawn from MFL unless it is designated as recreational. The
purpose for purchasing the land is to build a garage for the town
equipment. Furthermore, if the land was not going to be designated as
recreational then the entire parcel that the 1.23 acres is part of
would have to be taken out ofMFL. It was understood that Plum Creek
would not want to withdraw the entire parcel as the cost to do so
would be astronomical. 
With no further discussion on this matter, a motion was made and
seconded to close the public hearing. Motion carried. Meeting
adjourned.
