At the June 29 special meeting the board approved purchase of a used mower (DM1160) for $5,500. The vote was 2–1: Lars and Dean voted in favor; Peggy voted no. Earlier, Peggy had reported research finding the mower was not recommended for the town's intended use and noted citizens had reported the mower was being used in town.
The board also approved purchase of a new community-room stove for $877 on Dean's motion and Peggy's second. Separately, the board discussed financing options and rates for a Bobcat E88-R2 excavator but tabled a financing decision for a future meeting.
