(KLZA)--The Nemaha Natural Resources District approved authorization for the NRD Manager to negotiate for the purchase of a new pickup in an amount not to exceed $45,000 when they met June 12.
The new pickup will replace a parks pickup totaled in a collision with a deer in May.
The Board also approved a quote of $61,489 from FNIC/Glatfelter to renew the District's insurance coverage beginning July 1. The new premium is an increase of $2,485 over last year with the largest change in the property and workers compensation coverage.
Board members approved a three percent increase in salary plus $5,000 to be distributed by the Manager as merit increases for all employees except the Manager.
In addition, a three percent salary increase was approved for General Manager Kyle Hauschild.
An amount of at least $85,000 was approved to be included in the budget for summer conservation work applications.
Following a report from the committee that met with two parties whose park privileges have been revoked, the Board voted to approve the committee's consensus that the previous action by the board would stand and they recommended taking no action to reinstate the privileges.
Approval was also granted to the Village of Brownville to construct a new gazebo at the trailhead, to be located entirely on Village property. Village representative Steve Woerth said the village said volunteers would rebuild a damaged bridge on the trail utilizing volunteers to build the bridge and provide the materials.
