This would be <br />effective with the next scheduled meeting. <br />Westerberg moved, Ferrington seconded a motion to accept Eckman's resignation as Chair and <br />elect Ferrington. <br />VOTE: Ayes - 3 Nays - 0 <br />A-3 Approval of Minutes -July 23, 2009 <br />Eckman stated that approval of these minutes had been delayed to clarify the issue of well <br />sealing. On page 2, there was a motion for the Board to approve a program for well sealing and <br />revise the budget from reserves and place it as a line item for FY2010. The motion died for lack <br />of a second. Prior to that the Board passed an amended motion for criteria for giving well <br />sealing grants. Eckman asked the Board's intent. <br />Ferrington explained that the earlier vote was on the amendment to the original motion <br />establishing eligibility criteria for the well sealing program. The motion, now amended, died for <br />lack of a second because the Board believes it cannot financially support the well sealing <br />program from Ramsey County. <br />Ferrington moved, seconded by Westerberg to accept the minutes of July 23, 2009. <br />VOTE: Ayes - 3 Nays - 0 <br />A-4 Approval of Minutes -October 22, 2009 <br />Page 1: The names of Geoff Nash and Tom Peterson from Ramsey Conservation District need to <br />be added to attendance.
