Richard West moved for approval of the Board Approved 2023 Budget as presented with a second from Pam Borgos. Motion passed.
Chief Ensor Items and Concerns: The Fire Chief told the Board that while she is pursuing a grant for a new type 3 fire engine with additional funding from the county and the fire district as her preference we should also consider a backup plan should the grant and county funding not come through. Paul Martino suggested a used type 3 fire engine for much less cost than a new one and that he will pursue this with a company he has some experience with in the past. Clayton Carr suggested that regarding the chief's discussion last meeting about Starlink Internet we should wait until next Spring to pursue this any further pending any new developments that may arise by then. The chief also told the Board that she will wait until Spring to fill the gas tanks and that throughout the winter they will remain empty thereby avoiding any condensation build up.
