Milan council approves fire station repairs and $29,000 budget amendment to maintain staffing
Summary
On Oct. 24, 2022, the Milan City Council approved up to $7,500 for brick repairs at the Milan Fire Station and amended the FY2023 Milan Area Fire Department budget to add $29,000 in General Fund expenditures to maintain station staffing through June 30, 2023.
The Milan City Council voted Oct. 24 to approve repairs to the Milan Fire Station and to amend the city’s FY2023 spending plan to maintain fire-staffing through June 30, 2023.
Councilmembers voted unanimously to accept a repair bid not to exceed $7,500 for brick work at the fire station. Councilmember Nie moved the purchase; Councilmember Baldwin seconded, and the motion carried without objection.
The council also approved an amendment to the Milan Area Fire Department’s FY2023 operating budget that increases General Fund expenditures for Department 336 (Fire) by $29,000 to fund station staffing through June 30, 2023. Councilperson Nie moved the amendment; Councilperson Kerkes seconded. The minutes note there was no attachment to the agenda item. The motion carried unanimously.
Both motions were recorded as carried unanimously by the seven members present. The council also approved bills payable and payroll totaling $527,456.05 during the same meeting.
The actions are procedural budget and maintenance approvals intended to keep daily operations and station upkeep on track; the minutes do not identify specific contractors beyond the authorized bid limit nor specify the exact source line-item transfers other than the General Fund increase to Department 336.
The council’s next regular meeting is scheduled for Monday, Nov. 14, 2022, with agenda materials due Nov. 9.
