Summary

After a recent snowstorm damaged a snowplow that has since been repaired, Mayor Steve Dickey recommended storing the tractor inside the garage before storms to protect equipment and readiness.

Mayor Steve Dickey told trustees the town's snowplow broke during the recent snowstorm and has been repaired. He said the tractor "needs to be put inside the garage before a snowstorm hits" to avoid equipment failure and ensure readiness for snow response.

The board discussed the item in the context of operational preparedness but did not take a formal vote on changes to storage policy or emergency operations. The minutes record the repair of the plow and the mayor's direction on storage as guidance to staff rather than as an adopted resolution.
