Both readily agreed and demonstrated <br />exceptional hospitality; especially as cold weather impacted those units with diesel <br />engines. The equipment bay portion of the building is complete and we moved our <br />equipment back from those two cities the week of January 15t". Council expressed a <br />desire to adopt resolutions of appreciation at their January 8, 2018 Council meeting <br />when it was reported the equipment would be coming home, thus now that has occurred <br />it is the appropriate time. Director Peterson also plans on holding an open house <br />specific for those Public Works department members to come over and view the new <br />facility. <br />Recommendation: <br />Approve Resolutions 8899 and 8900 and direct Administrator Zikmund to coordinate with <br />recipients and council on presenting to the two respective cities. <br />Respectfully submitted, <br />mVrfd, City Administrator <br />
