From the meeting
At the October 15, 2026 meeting, Chief Rick Martens said the plan to add onto the fire station hit a snag because engineering pushed the estimate well above budget. He said a revised proposal was still above budget and that he might explore a USDA grant. The station's second floor is not ADA compliant, so the town still has a facility upgrade problem looking for a funding path.
