Froid Town Council Restarts Annexation Process
The Froid Town Council held their regular meeting Monday, Feb. 8. The council agreed to restart the annexation process begun in 2012. It has become apparent that several properties receiving town services have not officially been annexed into the town’s tax base. LeAnne Johnson told the Community News that the process needs to be completed by Dec. 31. A public hearing will be scheduled.
The council reviewed water, sewer and garbage accounts. Shutoff notices will be mailed out. The council also recommended that agreements for services with Bowker Enterprises and Great West Engineering be extended by three years and two years respectively.
Mayor Sherri Crain told the council that several complaints have been received about people speeding through town. She reminded the public that they should call the Roosevelt County Sheriff’s Office with concerns about traffic violations.
Crain also told the council that public works director Odean Kilsdonk has been assembling new bleachers for the baseball field.
Following role call and the recognition of visitors, the council approved meeting minutes for the January meeting. The council also approved claims and payroll for the month. The meeting adjourned at 7:13 p.m. The next council meeting is set for March 8.
