Chief Bushey presented a memorandum of understanding developed by city staff and township representatives to govern a joint fire engine purchase and replacement plan between the City of East Grand Forks and seven townships the city serves.

"My recommendation is that you approve and sign this memorandum of understanding," Chief Bushey said, adding that staff (Huttman, Golston and Bushey) had prepared the agreement and supplied council members with a copy.
