If we were to update to a radio telemetry at all three sites there are two estimates. One for $18,000 and one for $15,490.00, David has the information.

Dog Control

One of the questions asked by some of the approximately 12 concerned citizens of the Town of Genoa were: Do we have any laws now? Yes we follow the County and State laws at present. There is no leash law at present. However dogs must be contained during deer season. Concerns were not being able to walk on certain street in the town. There have been some children and adults harassed by dogs. A couple citizens were not in agreement with having new dog legislation. However the majority of the citizens at the meeting had legitimate complaints. The big concern is the children that might be harmed and this would be irreversible. There has been a lot of time and effort put into the Dog Control effort and James Baker will be with us to continue at the May 9, 2001 meeting at the Genoa Fire House at 7:30pm.

Supervisors Report

There was one error on supervisors report. Need to locate the receipt. Also need to break down adjustments to water billing. Will contact Fran Mitchell to provide explanation & breakdown.
