Present: Lisa Fahey, Jamie Plantenberg-Selbitschka, Chris Wilson, Tom Constant,
Toni Seroshek, Gail Anderson. Mayor Jessica Stockamp.
Meeting was called to order at 7:05pm. Minutes for the last meeting were
approved. Agenda was accepted as presented.
Getting materials from old school house/town hall building:
Toni proposed that transfer of OHPC items from the District 10 Schoolhouse/old
town hall to the current OHPC office in Prairie Center be scheduled for Friday at
gam; it was agreed that Toni and Gail would meet Jessica there for the transfer.
School/old town hall ideas, newspaper article:
No calls have been received about reuse ideas for the old school house/township
hall from the article in the Otsego newsletter or the Elk River Star News. An idea
Chris had about the City exchanging land which could access a possible park area
on her land for the site which the couple next to her now own because allegedly
these neighbors wish to build a house from antique materials. Jessica doubted
that this could be done for a variety of reasons, including the fact that Nashua is
going to be made straight as it goes north which would take off a great deal of the
property. She will discuss it with the administrative staff and counsel, however.
Park history sign prosect:
All materials have been forwarded to the Dan Licht.
Pictures to hang in City Hall:
No additional pictures were found in the materials from Della Anderson.
Work in progress: We went through the old foam board maps/plans in our office
and evaluated them for keeping or not keeping. We looked at a collection of
aerial photos from the 1970's or 80's which might be used for the new City Hall
walls. Jessica will take them to the City Council for consideration.
Meeting adjourned at 8:20pm.
Gail Anderson, Recorder
