OLD BUSINESS
- Iverson began discussion on the building permit request from Mr. & Mrs. Dykes. The Dykes informed the Board that they are withdrawing their building permit request. An LIA resident presented a letter to the Board with 12 signatures stating their opposition to granting variances to the first floor square footage requirement. Iverson read the letter at the Board Meeting.
- Bill Willis addressed the Board regarding security matters. He asked for direction from the Board regarding the number of remaining security hours available for the remainder of the fiscal year.

The Board was asked for permission to have our Bylaws reviewed by our attorney as part of the updating process. Hildenbrand made a motion, seconded by Steve Garbaciak to have our LIA attorney, Mr. Thompson, review our bylaws up to a fee of $125. Motion carried.
NEW BUSINESS
- Mr. Daniel Angus, 103 Comanche Trail, Lot 133A, is requesting a variance to the 50ý water setback to put in a concrete patio. The board discussed the request and feels no action is necessary by the Board, and the Building Committee will handle the request.
- Terry and Corbin Siddall, 104 Pueblo Drive, Lot 301 & 302B, are requesting a permit for a 140 sq. ft. shed to be built on skids. Miller will advise the Siddalls that according to Iroquois County law they need to contact the county for a permit if the project will cost over $500.
- Kenton and Vicky St. Peter, 131 Choctaw Trail, Lot 322 B, are requesting a permit for a 9 ý foot by 10 ft. wooden deck at the rear of his house.
- Carl Larson requested an extension on his building permit, on lot 106, due to needing more time to complete his construction. Miller advised Mr. Larson that the stated fee of $50 per month will be assessed starting October 17, 2006.
- Webster brought up discussion of the EPA loan application and advised that he has contacted EPA and feels that he can prepare the application with assistance from EPA in an effort to avoid the $6,000 - $8,000 fee. A motion was made by Garbaciak, seconded by Woolridge to allow Webster to work on preparing the application rather than hiring Foth & Van Dyke/Daily Division for the application process. Motion carried.
A motion was made by Hildenbrand, seconded by Woolridge to go into executive session at 8:06 pm. Motion carried.
The Board returned to open session at 10:25 pm.
A motion was made by Garbaciak, seconded by Rodriquez to approve Mark Websterýs contract as negotiated. Motion carried.
A motion was made by Garbaciak, seconded by Woolridge to allow Mark Webster to carryover 5 unused vacation days in addition to the remaining 5 days due for the current fiscal year, due to misunderstanding and lack of clarification of the contract rules regarding carrying over unused vacation time. All 10 days must be used by March 31, 2007 or they will be forfeited. Motion carried.
A motion was made by Miller, seconded by Ostrowski to adjourn the meeting at 10:34 pm. Motion carried.
