Ambulance Director Jan Faught was present to inform the committee of her plans to designate
an attendant as vehicle maintenance person with a salary of $50 per month and an education
instruction position with a salary of $25 per class. Jan explained that these positions are
within her budget. She went on to tell the committee that she would like to send Dan Koch to
a Wheeled Coach Certified Technician School on February 7th and 8th in Orlando, Florida.
There is no cost for the school, but the city would have to pay travel expenses, meals and
lodging. This will allow the city to order parts directly from the factory, perform warranty
work on the new ambulance, and also perform work on the Whalen light bars for police, fire
and ambulance. The costs also are within budget. The committee thanked Jan for the
information.
