Sun Valley schedules Sept. 3 joint meeting with Ketchum to discuss fire-department cooperation and ladder ownership; 3-1 vote
Summary
The Sun Valley council voted 3-1 to schedule a discussion-only joint meeting with the Ketchum City Council on Sept. 3, 2014 to discuss Fire Department cooperation and joint ownership/use of a ladder; Council Member Franz Suhadolnik voted "nay."
The Sun Valley City Council approved scheduling a discussion-only joint meeting with the Ketchum City Council on Sept. 3, 2014 at 4 p.m. to discuss Fire Department cooperation and the proposed joint ownership and usage of a ladder. Mayor Dewayne Briscoe introduced the added agenda item and proposed the Sept. 3 date.
Council members asked questions during the discussion; after debate Council Member Michelle Griffith moved to schedule the meeting focused on fire department cooperation and joint ladder ownership and usage. The motion was seconded by Council Member Peter Hendricks and passed on a roll call vote: AYES — Michelle Griffith, Peter Hendricks, and Keith Saks; NAY — Franz Suhadolnik.
The motion was explicitly described as a "discussion-only meeting" and the minutes record the council voting to schedule the meeting (no interlocal agreement or final decision was made at this session). The Sept. 3 meeting was framed as a forum to explore cooperation and ownership arrangements between the two cities' fire departments, including shared use of a ladder truck.
