2.	NEW BUSINESS:

A.	Trustee Nydra Owen presented several snow plow vehicle options from other dealerships and has received pricing information for them. Trustee Nydra Owen

also stated that she has looked into contracting outside help for snow removal and

gave pricing information from those companies.

Treasurer Jassman presented her findings for the comparison of loan vs. lease

programs for a new maintenance vehicle. Treasurer Jassman advised the board

that by adding the new police car to the same loan will save the Village on

interest payments and we can take a partial payment from the water fund since

the maintenance vehicle will be used for the water department too.

It was the consensus of the board that it getting too late in the year to have to

order a new maintenance vehicle and have to wait until the early part of next year

when Quality Truck in Bloomington has them.
