Council authorizes relief operator to use personal vehicle when needed
Summary
The council approved a motion allowing the city's relief operator to use a personal vehicle (insured) when the city truck is unavailable; the decision was made to ensure continuity of operations.
During the city reporter/staff update, Nicole explained the relief operator sometimes needs to use a personal vehicle (a 2003 Chevy Silverado) when the city truck is unavailable and that the operator's insurance card would be required. Councilors discussed the technicality and the need to document the approval.
A councilor moved that the relief operator be authorized to use his private vehicle while properly insured; another councilor seconded and the motion passed on a voice vote. Staff said there is a standard form to document the requirements and they will provide it for records.
Why it matters: allowing the relief operator to use a personal vehicle when necessary keeps public works functions running and staff said they will document insurance and operator qualifications in the city's records.
