Committee Reports:

Equipment Purchase & Planning: The committee has reviewed the repair history of the Elgin Street sweeper and recommends we do not consider selling it.

They also reviewed the repair history for the John Deere Lawn Mower and suggest we sale the International tractor with the broom and purchase a smaller utility tractor and a brush hog to be used at the sewer plant and various other places to save wear and tear on the lawn mower.

The committee suggests buying a better model of the hand held trimmer.

The committee observed a gas blower at the Maintenance Shop-Does it belong to the Village or Bob?

Purchasing a line painter is being denied because it would not be used often enough to be cost effective.  Renting one is a possibility.

Is the Sewer Snake operational? The committee has concerns about why Roto Rooter is being called if the snake is in working order.

The committee is disappointed in the general maintenance of the Dump/plow truck as there is still salt in the box, auger and sander and there is salt residue on the building floor where the truck is parked. The committee recommends pressure washing and oiling the truck and pressure washing the floor while Bob is on vacation.

Kaminski will talk to Bob about the committees’ concerns and recommendations.

Payment of bills:

Motion: Mansavage/Garski to pay all the bills as read. All in favor: None opposed: Motion carried.
