APPROVAL OF MINUTES AND AGENDA MOTION: Mr. Lynch moved to approve the agenda with additions. Motion seconded and carried unanimously. MOTION: Mr. Lynch moved to approve the minutes of March 28, 2001 as mailed. Motion seconded and carried unanimously. DUTY CREWS Mr. Boehlke distributed a proposed outline for establishing duty crews; he emphasized that the duties, activities, and pay were tentative and that the organizing would evolve with experience. The Board discussed possible revisions and noted there would be an economic benefit when the crews were established and productive. There was general agreement that the concept is a good one and that a progress report would be informative and of assistance in evaluating the concept. It was noted that this was not a budget item for 2001 and that funds would have to be allocated in order to initiate formation this year. 2002 BUDGET Chief Schreier said that the proposed capital and operating budgets would be prepared by the Fire Department by the end of June and mailed directly to the Fire Board members. SPENDING PRIORITIES - ALLIANT TECH FUNDS The Fire Department submitted a Spending Priority Summary (attached) which they proposed to take from Alliant Tech contributions. Funding for the duty crews is the most important to them. There is $398,000 in that fund with another $70,000 due later this year. After referring to the policy set by the Fire Board in March, 2000, it was established that the fund balance is significantly above the minimum set. Discussion ensued on including capital expenditures in the 2002 budget instead of having a separate account.
