The board action overturns earlier recommendations from the Fire/EMS Oversight Board and the Finance Committee that called for Sturtevant to pay only $1,700 for the purchase, or about 4% of the total. |

The Public Works Committee seemed miffed at how few projects are eligible, but that didn't stop them from applying for economic stimulus money to fund two potential local road projects in 2009 and 2010. The two projects identified were to repave Lathrop Avenue between Taylor Avenue and Highway KR in 2009, and to rebuild Oakes Road from Highway 20 to 16th street near Case High School in 2010. The committee passed a motion to move ahead with the applications, which must be submitted to the Wisconsin Department of Transportation by Wednesday, February 18 in order to be eligible for approval. |
