So resolved
Mayor Fenstad spoke briefly in praise of the Village Manager, the Village Clerk,
the girls in the office, the civil and Criminal attorneys, the Police and Fire
Departments, and all village employees, and the Councilmen. He expressed the hope
that the Council and the new Mayor would receive more consideration and less
criticism. He cited some citizens for standing on a pedestal, condemning and
fighting progress and worked so hard at telling people how wrong the Council, the
Mayor, the staff and the Police Department are; thus costing the village time and
money; he expressed a hope that the new mayor would not be so plagued.
He said his hopes for the future included: Annexing Spring Park and portion of
Minnetrista to form a new Village that could be called 'Westonka'. Selling the
On Sale Liquor Lounge and moving the Off Sale operation into one store. Stated
that the Lounge and the Village Offices should both be sold and the monies used to
buildLa new and large office that could be operated more efficiently and economically.
He also suggested that the village hire a good man not an engineer to take the place
of Bernard Winkel who passed away in October.
The talk was ended by a wish that Mound would progress~ and thanking all those with
whom he had worked~, for their cooperation.
Andreasen moved and Ulrick seconded a motion to adjourn until the meeting of Jan. 4,
1972 at the Shirley Hills School at 8:00 P.M.

The vote was unanimously in favor, so carried and adjourned.
