Summary

Council discussed the future of the EMS building but made no final decision on the facility itself; it voted Sept. 15, 2025 to place the ambulance on Purple Wave for auction, a motion moved by Council Member Murphy and seconded by Council Member Gilbert.

Mayor Ruebke told the council they still need to decide on what to do with the EMS building, but the council did not resolve the building's disposition on Sept. 15. During the same discussion, Council Member Murphy moved and Council Member Gilbert seconded a motion to put the ambulance on Purple Wave for auction; the motion passed with yes votes from Willhaus, Gilbert, Murphy, Richard, Berridge and Daily.

The council did not establish a schedule or next steps for the EMS building itself during the meeting; discussion will continue at a future meeting. The ambulance was explicitly directed to be listed for auction on the Purple Wave online marketplace as the immediate surplus action authorized by the council.
