Long Lake approves safety purchases: transfer‑station light and pyrotechnics container
Summary
The board approved installing a streetlight at the transfer station (estimated $20/month) and purchasing a 20' container for pyrotechnics storage for $3,750, citing employee safety and regulatory requirements for fireworks permits.
The Town Board approved two safety‑related purchases on March 26. Resolution 23 authorizes the Town Supervisor to contract with the utility to install a new streetlight at the Town Transfer Station; the utility reported the addition would increase the town’s streetlight bill by about $20 per month. The board found that amount reasonable to improve visibility and safety for transfer‑station employees.
In Resolution 25 the board authorized a $3,750 purchase of a 20‑foot dry‑van container (to be used for secure storage of pyrotechnic supplies used in town fireworks), based on a single quote from Interport Maintenance Co., Inc.; the resolution cites ATF permitting rules that require secure storage and directs payment from the General Fund.
