Call to Order The Otter Tail County Board of Commissioners convened Tuesday, August 20, 1996 at 9:38 a.m. at the Otter Tail County Courthouse with Commissioners Virginia Portmann, Chair; Bill Stone, Harley Windels, Malcolm Lee and Andy Lindquist present.

Overweight Vehicle Violations County Attorney, Wally Senyk, Highway Engineer, Rick West, and Patrol Officer, Al Frank, discussed repeat overweight vehicle violations.

Al Frank, responsible for weight monitoring, explained that Northern Waste has been cited six times for weight violations, one incident being overweight for a 10 ton road. Solid Waste Director, Mike Hanan, stated that sanitation trucks have difficulty meeting weight restrictions in the spring because the trucks themselves are very heavy, however, there hasn't been known repeat violations by other waste haulers.
