SECRETARY REPORT
Brandie would like to attend the PSATS conference April 18-21st.
The County Aid completed report needs signed by Frank for the $5,000 towards the Jerry Run Slide project.
The township has switched propane companies from AmeriGas to Friday’s Gas & oil. They offered the lowest price when Brandie called around, they provide a tank free of charge. Walter Sipe suggested that the township investigate purchasing their own tank so if another company offered lower price, we would not have to keep switching tanks.
BUSINESS:
There have no complaints about the road conditions through out the snow weather we have had.
Frank has been keeping up with the equipment maintenance. There seems to be an electric issue with the F550, and he is waiting for a good time to take it in to get looked out, cannot have it in shop if it is bad weather.
We want to enlarge the garage door to fit a 12’2”x11’ door. Overhead door gave us an estimate of approx. $2,300 for the new door. Gambino Construction is going to give us a quote and Brandie will call Victor Cook for a quote.
