Oglesby resident Vern Siemers stated that there was a utility pole near his property that needs to be inspected. Commissioner Argubright stated he would have someone in the Electric Department check it out.

Also, Greg Stein presented a pair of old tennis shoes that he wore at the canoe landing and in the Vermillion River. He stated that he got stuck in the mud.
