McGillen Dave Gauslow A quorum (3 or more) present, the following action was taken by the Committee: The Committee reviewed used equipment request by Jim Kraft. The Fire Department has radios, base stations, portable radios, and pagers. The department Chief's will inventory this equipment, and a cost will be put on each item, as to its age and condition. Other equipment such as old turn outs, helmets, and forest service hose. These items have no money value but could be of great value to another Department that has none. Also, the old water tank trailer, which was no cost to the City could be of good service to another Department. It should be left up to the Laurel Volunteer Fire Department as to what should be done with these items. The Committee discussed the need of housing for equipment: 1. Add on to the north side of the existing building. 2. Make a temporary building at the City Barn. 3. Buy more land. 4. Go to sub station. The Committee strongly recommends that the City act now on: 1. Building a pole building at the City Barn area. 2. Go for a first denial option on the land next to the Fire Hall. 3. Have a study made to add onto the existing building. The Committee feels that these steps have to be addressed now, and not in 90 days from now. The Laurel Fire Dept. has 5 new members, and would 40 like to get approval from the Mayor an'd City Council The new members are as follows: Jim Stevens, Bill Gaynor, Terry Ruff, Thomas Webb and Scott Wilm.
