Superintendent Back asked which departments are supposed to come to them for maintenance or mechanics service. Williams answered that they are to do the maintenance on all Town owned vehicles, except for the Ambulance Service. It was decided that the only way ambulance can be included. would be to figure out an hourly rate, increase that by 50%. for employee benefits, and actually bill the Ambulance Service. That way. each of the governmental units of the service pays it's fair share. Back said that the State would like to be in charge of maintaining the traffic signals on Highway 6. Before they would take the signals over, they would have to be brought up to standards.
