From the meeting
At its July 13, 2026 meeting, the council moved to purchase a used 100-foot ladder truck for the fire department. The price discussed was $35,000, with additional funds for transportation, fuel, and equipment. Fire Chief Kyle Wells said the truck had 150,000 miles, a 2009 model year, and annual certification records.
This is a decided purchase, but it still signals follow-on needs for inspection, transport, certification, and related equipment.
