President Sprague reported that at time of purchase of new pick up truck, plan was to trade in or sell old |
truck every three years or so and purchase new truck with municipal discount, therefore keeping a |
relatively new truck in service at low cost to us. Current 2017 truck has 33,000 miles on it and would be |
worth approximately $25,000.. A new truck with municipal discount would cost approximately $31,000. |
Is this the time to get a new truck? Current truck was purchased with grant funds. |
Clerk reported we are still in need of candidates for Village Board. It would be a good idea to write |
up some guidelines as to what is expected of board members to earn the $1,200 per year salary. |
Meetings earn another $50.00 per meeting. |
Ecker/Behm m/s/c to adjourn at 8:15 p.m. |
