Mayor Bruce Sutherland and John Millar were excused.
It was suggested by the Fire District they should be invited to attend the budget meetings relative
to the Fire Department in the future.
Discussions were concerning the general fund, equipment fund and the revenue earned from
sending equipment to the wildfires in Salmon, BLM grant, the purchase of pagers for the Archer
area and amending the budget for unforeseen revenue.
The issue of the consolidation was discussed . Milton felt the consolidation was moving very
slowly and reasons for this were discussed, including the budget process after the consolidation
was moved ahead of the 5 year anticipated date, the county funding another ambulance person,
the hours being the same for the fire department as well as the ambulance. It was suggested that
the committee meet and review any problems so this can be finalized. Kay will be the spearhead
to put together the committee meeting.
