Reedsburg Ambulance Service Commission
January 31, 2023
The meeting began with a call to order and the commissioners proceeded outside the building for the official groundbreaking for the new addition.
The meeting continued inside the building with the consent agenda approving both the financial statements from November and December as well as the meeting minutes from November 22nd and 29th; the motion passed unanimously.
There was no public comment.
The update on the building addition was that the wall had been ripped off and ground is anticipated to be broken in the coming week. The elevator has been removed in the final plans which is a cost savings for the project.
There was an update on the Village of Rock Springs; they paid their assessment for 2023 that they had been billed for and will remain as not a member of the Commission.
The Village of Lime Ridge has requested to remain in the Commission but sent a notice that they would not be paying for the new building addition; they had originally indicated that they would like to get out of the Commission. A motion was made and seconded to send a letter from the Ambulance Commission’s attorney to the Village of Lime Ridge encouraging them to participate in and remain part of the Commission. The motion passed unanimously.
There will be a strategic planning meeting for the Commission on Tuesday, February 28th at 7:00pm at the ambulance building.
Director Kowalke gave his monthly report. He presented the annual report and noted that a new EMT had been hired. Captain Craigin will not return full-time if at all so Brad Thompson was hired for the new captain position last week after interviews were performed. The Ambulance Service is in the midst of the annual fundraising campaign with appeal letters sent out and approximately $15,000 received so far. There will also be the annual bowling tournament coming up later this month.
The meeting closed with adjournment.
Respectfully submitted,
Rebecca M. Klitzke
