MINUTES <br />CITY COUNCIL <br />SEPTEMBER 12, 1989 <br />equipment. Graczyk reported that some of the <br />Department's masks are 20 years old, and Graczyk felt <br />it would be more efficient to have all masks the same <br />rather than having several different types. Graczyk <br />reported that there may be the possibility of selling <br />the Department's old masks. <br />Scalze asked what the Fire Department has been using <br />the revenue it has raised from charitable gambling for. <br />Graczyk replied that the Fire Department paid $5,000 <br />towards the Opticon system, $4,000 for electrical work <br />at the Fire Station, $3,500 to Twin City Testing for <br />testing of the Fire Department structure, $4,400 for <br />moving a beam at the Department, and $5,700 for a <br />computer. A total of $23,230 has been spent from <br />charitable gamblinq revenue. <br />Fahey pointed out that the Fire Department has <br />indicated that the remainder of the revenue has gone <br />into the Fire Department Equipment Fund, which may be <br />tapped for monies for acquisition of a new Fire Station <br />site. <br />Graczyk explained that line item 33 is for the <br />refurbishing of a truck to be used to transport firemen <br />to the sites of fires. Graczyk explained that the <br />Department has obtained one bid for this work in the <br />amount of $18,000. Graczyk estimated that with some <br />modification to the specs, the price could be in the <br />$14,000 to $15,000 range. Therefore, he requested that <br />this line item be increased. <br />Council agreed that this item should be increased to <br />$15,000, but also indicated that line items 32 and 33 <br />should be listed in the capital outlay area of the <br />budget. Therefore, $40,000 was moved into Capital <br />Outlay and the total Fire Department budget was amended <br />to $108,925. <br />Council reviewed and approved the Animal Control <br />portion of the budget. <br />Next area of the proposed 1990 Budget that was reviewed <br />was Streets. Dave Harris, Public Works Superintendent, <br />pointed out that he has budgeted for purchase of a <br />street sweeper.
