Mayor Ben Holien reported that the Tri-Community Fire Board's proposed share of a new truck had been reduced substantially by donations and fundraisers, leaving a $4,772.38 cost to the city.

Councilmember Jeannie Czaplewski moved and Kim Beseler seconded a motion to pay the $4,772.38 invoice for the new fire truck from ARPA funds; the council approved the payment unanimously. Members also discussed budgeting for maintenance items such as stripping and cleaning of department floors.

Council recorded the payment and noted the department's efforts to reduce the town share through fundraising; the immediate payment will come from ARPA funding as approved at the Sept. 11 meeting.
