Summary
Mayor Juschka read a report from Greg Burke that Keep Glendo Great received a $15,000 grant toward a new fire tender; Fire Chief Dave Noyce reported four new volunteer firefighters and requested guidance on the proper protocol to sell Engine 32.
Mayor Susan Juschka read a report from Greg Burke on behalf of the volunteer group Keep Glendo Great saying the group had received a $15,000 grant to contribute toward a new fire tender.
Fire Chief Dave Noyce told the council the department has added four new volunteer firefighters and that the annual chili cook-off had lower participation than in past years. Chief Noyce asked the council about the proper protocol to sell Engine 32; he did not present a formal motion to sell at the meeting but asked for direction on next steps. Noyce also invited council members to attend the department's monthly meetings on the first Wednesday of each month.
No formal action on the sale of Engine 32 was taken at the Oct. 15 meeting; the request was recorded so that staff and council can follow the appropriate procedures if the department moves forward.
