The council unanimously approved moving any remaining 2024 Leoti Volunteer Fire Department funds, after the year-end audit, into the department's equipment reserve; Fire Department leaders noted several grants have been awarded and will be detailed when finalized.
Fire Chief Mike Nickelson and Assistant Fire Chief Steve Baum gave an update to the council on the Leoti Volunteer Fire Department and EMS, including recent grant awards. Baum asked the council to authorize transferring any remaining 2024 Fire Department budget authority, after the audit, into the department’s equipment reserve fund.
