Committee Reports: No Plan Commission.  Fire meeting was cancelled last month.  No ambulance meeting. Financial Reports and Chief Report went out by email, all looked normal.

New Business:  Discussion on tractor and brush mower. Kevin, Steve and Karl have looked at this brush mower and it seems to be in pretty good shape. Wedam Excavating is asking $40,000. Motion was made to purchase this tractor and brush mower for $40,000 by S. Nielsen, 2nd by K. Hackbarth.  Approved.

This purchase was considered because of the rising costs of brush cutting and hiring of someone to do it.  This will save us large amounts of money over just a few years.
