Meeting Minutes

TOWN OF HAMILTON SPECIAL MEETING TUESDAY, JANUARY 19, 2022 Chairman Blaine Lee called this special meeting to order at 7:00 p.m. for the purpose of considering a commitment in the sum of $19,221.00 to be added to the West Salem Fire Protection District budget in 2023. Roll call found Blaine Lee, Kevin Hoyer, Paul Degenhardt, Katie Reding and Sara Schultz in attendance. The fire district’s tanker needs to be repaired and they are looking at options of either buying a replacement tank for it or purchasing a whole new tanker, which would cost approximately $325,000. All three municipalities (Town of Barre, Village of West Salem, and Town of Hamilton) need to agree on a budget and the purchase before anything can be acted on. The board discussed both options listed above and how it would be paid for. Supervisor Hoyer made a motion to support a commitment of our share of $19,221.00 to be added to next year’s fire district budget and Supervisor Degenhardt supported the motion with a second. Motion carried. Meeting was adjourned at 8:00 p.m. with motions made by Hoyer and Degenhardt. ________________________ Sara Schultz, Town Clerk
