Stutesman. On a roll call vote Supervisor Anderson and Trustees Koppenhofer, and Stutesman voted aye. Trustees Kuper and Judy were absent. The motion passed. Attorney Noble stated the surveys were very expensive, about $7000. The high cost was due to the sellers instructions to the surveyors, and the contract requires the sellers to pay the cost of the survey. We may want to consider a compromise where the Township pays part of the survey cost.
