Beaver Dam board backs idea of pooled fire equipment fund and to support $6,500 annual request
Summary
The board expressed support for a Rural Fire Association proposal to re-establish a pooled equipment fund and indicated Chairman Joe Kern will speak on the town's behalf at the association's August meeting; the proposal requests roughly $6,500 annually.
Members of the Town of Beaver Dam board discussed a Rural Fire Association proposal to restore a pooled equipment account and indicated general support for contributing to the fund.
Dan Prunuske summarized the association's request for roughly $6,500 annually from the town to cover equipment and unanticipated expenses such as new tires and hoses. Board members said they were in favor of the idea. Chairman Joe Kern agreed to represent the town and speak in favor of the request at the Rural Fire Association meeting in August.
No formal motion or vote to commit town funds was recorded in the minutes; the matter will be presented at the Rural Fire Association meeting for further consideration. The board's endorsement at the local level signals preliminary support but does not constitute an approved budget appropriation.
