Assessors note privately purchased fire truck; owner to check with MMA on response eligibility
Summary
Minutes record a question about a new fire truck purchased by a private individual and whether it can respond to calls if privately owned and insured. The board recorded that the owner, named in the minutes as Jimmy Doria (also spelled Doira in the record), will contact MMA to seek clarification.
The board recorded an outstanding issue concerning a new fire truck purchased by an individual named in the minutes as Jimmy Doria (the transcript also uses the spelling "Doira"). The minutes state Jimmy will contact MMA to determine whether a vehicle owned and insured privately can respond to calls rather than being owned and insured by the town.
The treasurer's report provides budget context: a Fire Truck Account balance of $12,000.00 and a Fire Dept. Reserve account balance of $52,903.95. The meeting record separately notes the fire department is "waiting for approval for new fire truck," suggesting the apparatus and insurance/ownership questions remain unresolved and are pending further clarification from MMA.
