7. Public Comments:  Dave Hall discussed with the Board how it has been 2 years sense he purchased the Quonset property.  He understands that the Board is waiting for OPPD to decide on the property we sold Hall that was surveyed incorrectly, and that the Village will have to wait on the decision of OPPD, however he asked the Board to in turn do some drainage work on the North side of the building and to the east where the water sits.  The Village had Randy Crownover do some grading where it does drain better now.  The Village will continue to keep on top of this with OPPD and let Dave know of any decisions.
