NEW BUSINESS
Phil Nalley asked about the status of burn permits from the Health Department about training house burns Rick Thorson from the Health Department attended the meeting and explained what they are asking. Due to our air quality getting worse over the last 4-6 years they would like us to remove content that would be hazardous such as shingles, siding, carpet and any asbestos. They will allow 2 unrestricted burns a year. The monitor the air quality for particulate matter and wouldn’t issue a permit if the air quality indicator is over 50. They are trying to get CRP burns staggered so there won’t be so many in one year. Raymond has moved their second ambulance to the Arbor station. The Nebraska City fire museum is open.
