Rotan council weighs vehicle replacements and surplus sales amid mechanical concerns
The chair summarized multiple fleet issues, noting the 2012 Chevrolet may have engine and transmission problems and that repairs might not be cost-effective. Council members discussed options including purchasing used vehicles from local sources (Mitch Hall, Bill Wilson were mentioned) and whether to prefer gas over diesel for maintenance reasons.

The animal-control truck was discussed for potential sale but the chair suggested scrapping it might yield more value than a low sale price; the council considered whether to list it for sale and whether to pursue replacement purchases but no final, recorded vote appears in the provided segments.
