Old Business
Dean Otto brought us up to date on starting a web page. After much informative information by Dean a motion was made, 2nd and carried to give Dean up to $300.00 to buy a domain name and proceed with setting up a web page for Minneopa Cemetery.
Jerry Neilson talked about the road problem with the hill on the east side northeast corner. We will take a look at this when we meet at the cemetery at 2:00.
Sally Peterson gave a report on road signs. It was suggested that we buy an extra set of letters in case one gets stolen or we break one. Sally will handle this.
Sally Peterson wanted to know if we could get an address for the cemetery so the phone book would not show her home address as the location of the cemetery. Gordon Herbst will take care of this.
Sally Peterson also explained the grave situation with the Moe family and will get a letter signed and notarized by the officers of the board and the new deeds mailed to the Moe Family.
Dean Otto said because of the death of Clinton Faust we need a second person to sign for the safe deposit box. Sally Peterson volunteered to do this.
The motion was made 2nd, and passed to adjourn and reconvene at the cemetery at 2:00 p.m.
Respectfully submitted by Sally Peterson, Sec.
