Funding for some potential new signs for the North Judson-Wayne Township Fire Department was discussed at Monday night’s town council meeting.
Fire Chief Joe Leszek told council members that the Fire Department recently held a business meeting and came up with a solid figure that they would be able to pledge towards the purchase of three new signs.
“For our proposed signs, if and when we’re ever ready to pull the trigger, the department would like to donate $3,500”
Councilman John Rowe asked Chief Leszek how much of the cost would be left if the Department provided their amount. Leszek said his research indicated that the overall cost would be around $9,000, so an additional $5,500 would have to come from the Town.
Clerk-Treasurer Andrew Rowe noted that he has been working to include the expenditure in the 2019 budget. Council members also proposed holding a fundraiser of some kind to raise additional funds for the purchase.
Members have not taken any official action on this matter yet, but discussions will continue in future meetings.
