Jim will seek crack seal bids for Woodland Drive.

New Business: The board will get some estimates about refurbishing pump-house #2 (on the upper end of Woodland Drive). The current building is home to mice and chipmunks and needs some TLC. As part of the refurbishment Jim will ask Dakota Pump if a water leak detector is available that can connect with the SCADA system and alert us to water leaks in the pump-house and well-house.
