The Dubois Town Council will hold a regular meeting at 7 p.m. Wednesday, July 26, in the Council Chambers at Dubois Town Hall, 712 Meckem Street.
The agenda begins with a public hearing “to present the town’s trade of property.”
The trade involves .0069 acres of town-owned property worth $6,160 and .045 acres of privately-owned property worth $4,020, according to the agenda.
The council will consider approving the land trade with Richard and Catherine Liesenfeld later in the meeting.
During public comments, Gary Hedlund is scheduled to offer a presentation on Senate File 43 – EMS districts.
The town will also offer a reminder that Dubois is looking for a new member of the Board of Adjustment – a “quasi-judicial, statutorily established board with authority to grant variances from the town’s zoning ordinance.”
The board meets as needed on the second Tuesday of the month in the council chambers at Town Hall, and all members serve a three-year term, according to the agenda.
