Summary

DPW Director Peter Lederer reported logbooks and an asset list are being compiled, said generator work was done on Well 1, and told the committee he favors installing a generator at the DPW shop over Village Hall because shop power is needed to open overhead doors for emergency equipment.

DPW Director Peter Lederer told the committee on March 4 that logbooks for vehicle maintenance are available and finance is assembling a comprehensive asset list.

Lederer reported recent maintenance work on the Well 1 generator. Member Blaine Werner asked that a generator be installed at Village Hall; Lederer said he preferred a generator at the DPW shop so staff could power overhead doors and access emergency equipment if the power goes out. Member Chuck Mueller asked why the village could not buy a generator at a retail store; Lederer said the concern is the transfer switch and that he has talked to an electrician, and he will continue to investigate options.

The committee recorded no motion or vote on purchasing or installing new generators at the March 4 meeting; Leiter said he will continue investigating compatibility and transfer-switch requirements and report back.
