  • Back leaf spring fixed on Red Truck today.

Building Inspector:

  • Josh Baranczyk came to the meeting. He’s taken 2 tests and passed, needs to take and pass 2 more in the next 2 months. If all goes well could be going by March. His goal is to be accessible to home owners, he will be fair on pricing. Other townships have reached out to him too; there is a need in the area.
