Mr. Mahoney referred to the 2008 Portage County Municipal Hauling Contract - Additional Services Second
Addendum, copy attached. He explained that the addendum covers multi-family refuse and recycling pickup. As part of the contingency agreement with Veolia, it is the Village's responsibility, not the County's, to take care of
multi-family dwellings. The costs in the addendum reflect an improvement to what was budgeted and a 15% vacancy
rate is included as well.

6. AUTHORIZATION OF FUNDS TO MAKE NECESSARY REPAIRS TO CTH HH/HOOVER AVE. INTERSECTION
Mr. Mahoney explained that the proposed resolution, copy attached, authorizing funds to make necessary repairs to the CTHH/Hoover Ave. intersection is a follow up to the previous Village Board's authorization of the Village President to sign improvement documents for the CTH HH/Hoover Ave. intersection. Discussions with the WI Dept. of Transportation indicated the need to approve a Resolution declaring an emergency in order for work to proceed on the left turn signals at the intersection due to increased traffic because of the Porter Road bridge being closed.

RECOMMENDATION TO VILLAGE BOARD: Mr. Bishop moved to approve the authorization of funds to make necessary repairs to the CTH HH/Hoover Ave. Intersection. Mr. Fritz seconded and the motion carried.
