Further discussion revealed that this sign would be at the entrance to the property off Cloverland Drive and the existing sign is located at the entrance off Highway 70.

Motion passed.
Much discussion by the commission and input from residents Jeff and Ann Currie concerning a program for roadside cleanup from volunteer groups. How it would be organized, if it would be a once a year function or tri yearly as is done by the State of Wisconsin, would interfere with others responsible for the clean up, might be group lunch or pot-luck dinner for those participating, should the Lake Associations be contacted for their participation, and are some roads in need of clean-up more than others?
