Motion by Ullmer, second by Horkman to suspend meeting for public input. All in favor, motion carried. Vote: Yes-5, No-0.

- Mike VanLanen - Bay Settlement Road pedestrian safety, if someone would get injured the Town would have the total cost. Water is standing in front of Deprey’s, Bayland Builders and Victorias, if the Town would have curb and gutter you would not have that water. The Town requires curb and gutter for sub-divisions. Where the city has curb and gutter it is a safety improvement. It would look comparable with the city. VanLanen had a letter from Curt Boulanger, Town of Scott Resident and one of the new owners of the BP Gas Station that he was in favor of the Bay Settlement Road Grant. Ullmer asked VanLanen does UWGB have any concerns for the storm water. VanLanen did not think they did.

- Jim Immel, President of the Brown County Historical Society was present for the Gazebo at the look out point. Marion Sickel gave the land to the Historical Society. Jean Nicolet landed there and there is a monument there. Will present maps at Item #6.

- Jim Sickel is also here to speak on behalf of Marion Sickel for the Historical Site.

- Brad Ottum had a letter to the Town Board dated March 1, 2004. Brad appreciates the Sickel Family donating the land to the Historical Society. He is concerned about the security and maintenance of the site. He is a 25 year tax payer in the Town. He wants these issues addressed and put in writing. Ottum also wanted to get procedures to get alleys in the Town.

Asked Larry DeGroot with the BCHS if they would maintain the site. Security forces - Brown County Sherif Department is responsible for security. Ottum - how far in the future will they be here. Ottum is concerned that they are on the track to be a park. He wants to know and clarified the regulation for the look out site.

- Tina Geronimi - In regards to the dog licenses and about a kennel licenses. At the last meeting there was some inappropriate language that was used and other derogatory remarks. Will not be intimidated by the remarks that were made.

Ullmer was not aware of the language that was said. Geronimi question about the Indian grave sites. Ullmer - there is a burial mound on the new development Hwy K and Nicolet Road at the Wequiock Estates. Geronimi if there is an ordinance for watering lawns with the Bay water? John Lippert, resident of the Town and lives on the bay, said that the DNR lets residents who live on the bay use the water for lawns. If it was to be used for commercial use then they would have to get a permit from the DNR.

- Steve Dallaire - 3679 Sturgeon Bay Road - street light concerns for peoples safety, Bill will look at it at the end of this month.

- Betty DeCleene - In regards to the Jean Nicolet Statue. The State does not want to sell the statue. She would like a road to the statue. She was told that they would have access to their road and they do. They were also told that they would have access to the statue. How does the Town Board feel about the statue? They are concerned and some support this issue.

- Brad Ottum with Reliance Construction - The DOT wanted to close the road. They expect Reliance to remove the parking lot and road. Reliance would need a change order to remove the parking lot.

- Colleen Harris - The DOT has been closing a number of way sides and that was one of them. DNR wants to keep it and put a walking path to the statue.

- Ottum - if the town is interested, they should do something right away.
