Fire Truck Financing - Councilmember Rurle asked for a clari- fication as to whether or not the Council's previous action of granting the Municipal Services Committee authority to make the decision on the fire truck also contained approval of a financing plan. Mayor Roegner indicated that his interpreta- tion would be that that was the case and it would be appropriate to clarify the Council's intent at this time. Councilmember Larson indicated this was not his understanding, and the financing issue still remained with the Finance Committee and ultimately the City Council. After discussion, the consensus of the Council was that the Finance Committeee, at their last meeting, had made a recom- mendation to the Council on financing, but they would discuss it again at their next meeting of March 15. They would then recommend a financing mechanism to the full Council at the Council meeting of March 19. Therefore, Council consensus was that the Municipal Services Committee had the authority at its March 15 meeting to authorize the City administration to purchase a fire truck at a sum not to exceed $160,000 but the full Council would deter- mine the financing mechanism based on a recommendation from the Council Finance Committee. The meeting was ad_qurned at 9:30 p.m. -4- L 1 1
