Summary

Members discussed removal of an existing rusted cache cap, replacement container options (3–6k for plain containers; ~8k for temperature-controlled), and logistical needs such as site inspection, power availability and where to store incoming supplies.

Staff reported that Patrick Gantz and Fire Chief Jackson have been contacted about removing a rusted cache (cap) and the committee discussed whether to replace it with a larger container. A $300 quote to remove the cap was mentioned in the meeting as part of the update. Chair asked whether the city or the fire department would cover removal and staff agreed to clarify the timeline with the parties involved.

Committee members weighed trade-offs between larger inexpensive containers and smaller climate‑controlled units that protect supplies from condensation; rough price ranges discussed were $3,000–$6,000 for typical containers and closer to $8,000 for temperature‑controlled units. The committee assigned Brady to inspect the site and report back with allowable dimensions and power requirements.
