Butler City Council took action on many items at their meeting last week including accepting a bid to replace an engine in a fire response vehicle as well as accepting a bid to replace a roof on a city facility.
Council accepted a bid from Penn Power Group in the amount of just over $47,000 to replace the six cylinder nine liter engine on City Engine 1-2 which is a 2011 Spartan Metro Star chassis. According to Mayor Bob Dandoy, the work will take place as soon as possible.
Council also approved a bid from Fuller Building Group to replace the roof of the streets department garage for a total of just over $214,000. According to Dandoy, both the inflated cost and unknown timeline for completion are largely due to the availability of necessary materials.
Council also moved to fill several vacant positions on city authorities and boards but is always looking for more interested residents.
