problem the District is having with rodents at both golf courses and
submitted a request to the Town to allow the Recreation District the
privilege of shooting the rodents.
After considerable discussion, the Committee recommends totheBoard of
Trustee's that the Town Administrator and the Recreation District
Manager work with their attorneys and have a draft ordinance and
agreement prepared for Committee approval.
EMPLOYEE PARKING - SAFETY:
At the request of several local employees, the Public Safety Committee
has been meeting to discuss some of their concerns such as designated
employee parking in public parking lots and the safety and well-being
of female employees walking to their homes or cars after work in the
late evening.
Chief Ault reported the Sheriffs Posse, under the direction of Bill
Zech, will provide a ride for any female employee that makes a request by
calling the police dispatcher. The Village Taxi Service will also
provide a ride at a cost of 50 cents to a car or $1.00 to a home.

in public lots be denied and that the service provided by the Sheriffs
Posse and the Village Taxi Service be assisted by the Police Department
by the dispatchers taking calls for the Sheriffs Posse service.
