3. Executive Session
4. Reports
· President’s
- Stricker’s Pond: Group called The Friends of Kettle Lakes is having an organizational meeting October 22nd to determine approach on how to raise monies to support and maintain the kettle ponds around Madison. This Middleton organization has already done work around Tiedemann’s and the Middleton side of Stricker’s. This organization could help us with goal of cleaning up debris around the Madison side of Stricker’s. Don has found that there is a philosophy difference between Jim Morgan (parks dept) and Russ Hefty (from the City as well) about if it should be cleaned up or left as is.
