On the record – Fowler

WHAT: Township trustee meeting Monday

PRESENT: Al Crabbs, Tom Carr and Jeff Davis

Trustees:

• Approved payment to part-time firefighters who responded to calls in May totaling $316 and total in June $557 based on $10 per call during daytime and $20 per call at night. Officials said this encourages volunteers to help and the fire department doesn’t have to always rely on mutual aid for fires;

• Recognized fire Chief Fred Yungbluth, who received an Ohio Fire Academy Certificate of Training for Transportation Rail Incident Preparedness and Response (TRIPR) for dealing with best practices related to rail incidents involving hazard class 3 flammable liquids, such as crude oil;

• Purchased pepper spray for the fire department at $94;

• Discussed the need to get a new police patrol car;

• Rescheduled the next meeting to 7:30 p.m. Aug. 12.
