2 b. Police Department Report New Police Vehicle Chief Gertschen told the Board that the new police vehicle is built and supposed to be delivered here next week. He said the original price was $25,466.50, and because of the delay due to a vendor issue, the new price including a discount of $1,628.00, is $23, Gertschen said we were provided with a Chrysler vehicle for use during the extra time we had to wait for our vehicle, and only had to pay for gas. Cost Estimate to remove/reinstall warning siren Chief Gertschen said last year the Board talked about moving the siren since there is no backup power at its current location. Gertschen received a quote from Seliger Electric for $3, to remove/reinstall the warning siren on a new pole supplied by Wisconsin Public Service. The pole would be located by the Water Treatment Plant with wiring on the southwest corner, so if the power goes out, in 1.7 seconds the generator for the WTP kicks in and the siren works. Gertschen said the price does not include any service work on the siren. After some discussion, Board concensus was to go ahead with the work by Seliger Electric for now, including having the timer checked out, and then have a study done for the cost and location of a new siren. c. Street Department Report Approve bid specifications for South Road project Todd Trader from MSA said the bid opening is scheduled for July 1 st at 2:00 p.m, and the Public Hearing will be held on July 17 th at 7:00 p.m. He said a notice to the residents will be mailed 10 days before the Public Hearing.
