1. Call to Order
Mayor Brian Stumpf called the special meeting to order at 5:15 p.m.
2. Fire Study Presentation by Five Bugles
Daryl Gilles and Fire Chief Michael Mossey introduced the item to the City Council. It
was mentioned that a committee was formed for the purpose of the study. The committee
met five times and included six members of the Fire Department and Michael Clark, Five
Bugles Architect. Mr. Clark was introduced and presented the fire study to the City
Council. In the presentation, the current building and its lack of space — both for trucks
and for storage — was addressed. In addition, the lack of adequate training space was
discussed. The cost to add on to the current fire station is approximately $3,730,000 to
$4,260,000. Drawings of the building addition were shown. Discussion ensued among
the City Council. They discussed adding more than 10,000 square feet to the current fire
station versus building new. By discussion is seemed that adding on the existing fire
station is most viable. Jeff O'Neill commented that the next steps will look at the timing
and financing of the building. This will be discussed later this year, with the budget, and
could be tentatively scheduled for construction in 2019.
Councilmember Gabler moved to accept the Fire Study submitted by Five Bugles.
Councilmember Hilgart seconded the motion. Motion carried unanimously.
3. Adjournment
By consensus the meeting was adjourned at 6:15 p.m.
