Commission approves sale of 2012 fire truck to employee and OKs Game & Fish MOU pending attorney review
Summary
Williston approved the sale of a 2012 Chevrolet Silverado to the high bidder—an employee—pending removal of emergency equipment at buyer's cost, and approved a memorandum of understanding with North Dakota Game and Fish for a prescribed-burn training exercise pending city attorney review.
The commission on April 28 approved two separate, staff-recommended items affecting the Fire Department.
First, Fire Chief Corey Johnson said two sealed bids were received for the surplus 2012 Chevrolet Silverado; the high bid was $10,501.01 from Robert Benth, an employee of the department. The commission approved the sale by public bid to Benth with the condition that the buyer is responsible for any additional costs associated with removal of emergency-response equipment.
Second, the commission approved a standardized Memorandum of Understanding with the North Dakota Game and Fish to participate in a prescribed-burn training exercise on property that includes McKenzie County parcels. City Attorney Taylor Olson said the agreement could be approved pending attorney review; the commission granted authorization to the Fire Chief to enter into the MOU, also by unanimous voice vote.
Both actions were carried 5–0.
