WALKERTON TOWN BOARD MINUTES signal 10’s and harassment and 1 feel most of it has stuck with these men. Thank you for giving me the chance to answer the concerns. Greg Williams reported on the Pickavet drainage problem. I have watched the rain and how it affected the Pickavet problem. There are some restrictions in that area such as gas and water lines. Thereare a number of options all of which are costly and probably all unpredictable. It would more than likely require an engineer to come to the right solution so I’m not recommending any option only my observations. I also know that many places in town have just as critical a problem. Mr. Heemer suggested that perhaps we should hire an engineer to evaluate the situation. The clerk asked to be heard. The question of where the money would be coming from to finance this situation. The clerk explained that the Town has one fund that would handle this type of expense that being the Cumulative Building and Sinking Fund. However, at this present time this fund is geared to be used for the expense of Washington Street and will take every bit of what we have saved up. Now if you decide to do Pickavet’s drainage problem how could you handle all the others who would also be in to have their drainage problems solved. There just isn’t any money to take care of them at this time. Mr. Heemer said he was not aware that we did not have the money to take care of matters like these. He then asked that the clerk write a letter to the Pickavets explaining the situation. Mrs. Roma Quidey, resident of
