Public Comments
Residents Mr. and Mrs. Rosenbrock from Hassam road brought several concerns to the Town Board. The Rosenbrocks have installed fencing to keep the neighbors dogs off the property and on several occasions the dogs have acted in a threatening manor towards Mrs. Rosenbrock. There is a manure pile on the side of the road seeping across the road. Highway Superintendent Card will check on the road conditions. Animal control officer John Stow will handle any further dog complaints the Rosenbrocks have.
