<br />'moved and Mrs. Wold seconded that the Application for Abatement and Settlement of Taxes
<br />'submitted by Jeff Wollitz of West Fargo be approved for the year 1979 only, since the
<br />statute of limitations does not permit the abatement to be approved for the years
<br />1977 and 1978 as also requested in the application. On roll call vote, the motion
<br />carried unanimously.
<br />
<br />Upon the recommendation of the County Director of Tax Equalization, Mrs. Wold moved

<br />Federal Reyenue Sharing Funds should be spent. No one appeared and no written comments
<br />,were received.
<br />
<br />Upon the request of Mr. Al Baanna, Mrs. Stanton moved and Mr. Larson seconded
<br />that the Cass County Commission grant approval of the application of Galvanizers, Inc.
<br />for a 100% income tax exemption for 5 years. The motion carried on roll call vote
<br />with Mr. Eckert opposing.
<br />
<br />Mr. Larson suggested that the County Commission question the members of the
<br />Cass County Housing Authority Board to see how many wish to actively remain as members,
<br />and he suggested that the Commission request a copy of the attendance records for the
<br />past two years. The Auditor will arrange for the former director and the new director
<br />to meet with the Board about the middle of March.
<br />
<br />Mr. Irv Rustad presented the Quarterly Report of the Lake Agassiz Regional Council.
<br />
<br />A large delegation of rural residents appeared before the Board regarding a
<br />proposed regional airport authority. Mr. Leslie Roach, Vice President of the
<br />Cass County Township Officers Association, spoke on behalf of the group. He stated
<br />that the rural residents basically feel that the support of such a facility should
<br />be from those who use it, rather than from property taxes. They strongly urged that the
<br />Commission not commit Cass County to the Fargo Airport Authority until the
<br />Fargo Airport Authority has secured a similar agreement or commitment from the
<br />City of Moorhead and Clay County in Minnesota.
<br />
<br />On motion by Mr. Larson and seconded by Mrs. Wold, the meeting was adjourned.
<br />
<br />ADJOURNED MEETING OF CASS COUNTY CQMMISSIONERS
<br />FEBRUARY 18, 1981
<br />
<br />Chairman Hendrickson called the meeting to order and upon roll call, all members
<br />were present.
<br />
<br />Mrs. Stanton moved and Mr. Larson seconded that the minutes of the previous
<br />meeting be approved as written. Motion carried.
<br />
<br />Discussion was held with the County Road Superintendent on the proposed road
<br />construction program for 1981. The proposal consists of approximately 20 miles
<br />of road, and Mr. Grindberg estimated the cost of the projects to be $800,000.00.
<br />The proposed construction would be County Road 26 from Page to County Road 5,
<br />County Road 26 from County Road 5 to State Highway 18, and 3 miles from Erie
<br />'to County Road 26. Another possibility would be including paving of 1.7 miles
<br />between Traill and Cass Counties if Traill County is willing to pay half of the
<br />project cost which is estimated at $206,000.00. The Board discussed calling for bids
<br />on the basis of a total project cost and on the basis of breaking the project down
<br />into segments.
<br />
<br />The Chairman received a copy from Mr. Henry Wisness,
<br />'of Senate Concurrent Resolution No. 4027 for an amendment
<br />of the State of North Dakota relating to eminent domain.
