Director Thatcher asked approval from the Council to
purchase the two way radios which they had discussed in
an earlier agenda session. He explained that while the
Council had directed him to wait until the funds had
been received from the State of Minnesota, there is an
urgency in that the radios are needed to improve the
productivity of the public works department, and the
vendor has stated that he cannot hold the price down
any longer. Director Thatcher stated the funds are
expected from the State within the next few weeks, and
will amount to approximately $3,000, and the cost of
the radios is $2,613.
Motion /Second: Haake /Hankner to approve the purchase of
the two way radios in the amount of $2,613, to be

department until such time as they can be reimbursed
with the check from the State.
