The minutes of the August 8 and August 28, 2012 meeting were approved without any changes or additions after some discussion.
OLD BUSINESS:
Chief Billmire informed the Commissioners that he had spoken with Stephanie regarding a new project at Cabin Creek. This project is funded by a Federal Grant to clean up the area just west of Warren Wagon Road. This project is called Meadow Bear Project.
Assist Chief de Jong informed the Commissioners that the Hazard Planning Project is wrapping up in the next month or so. They are now in the Warren area and then they will do Yellow Pine. Tentative finalization date is March. Training for the tablets will be in November.
Chief Billmire stated that Policy Manual updates have been sent out and he is waiting for feedback from the Commissioners. Commissioner Binder did not get one because his email was down so we will give him a printed copy.
Chief Billmire informed the Commissioners that he had met with ICRMP last week and gave them the quote we received from VFIS. He asked them to review it and let us know what they could do for us. We have not heard back from them, so the Chief recommended that we go with VFIS. Commissioner Kirk made a motion that we accept VFIS without the umbrella coverage. This motion was seconded and passed unanimously.
Assistant Chief de Jong stated that the FY 2012-2013 Budget was left on the agenda from last month; it was approved at the meeting on August 28, 2012.
