COMMITTEE
REPORTS:
Library: The Library Board submitted their FY2011
budget to the Council. Carol Ford explained the need to increase the
budget since they were $2,500 short in the salaries section for the
2010 budget and the only reason it wasn’t higher was due to
not having a director for part of the year. The Council said they
would keep that in mind when determining the new budget. |
| Water/Sewer/Streets:
R Bachman informed the Council that the front differential needs to
be replaced in the red truck and that the maintenance dept. found
a used one for $400 at Delp Auto. The Council further discussed that
the red truck needs to be used as the secondary plow for only up town
and at intersections. |
