Fairfield City Council – Two Spokane County Commissioners and representatives from the Spokane Police Department and Fire District 2 made a presentation about “communication infrastructure interoperability.” They discussed the need for updated emergency communication equipment. Council members selected Century West as their engineering firm for 2008, with USKH chosen as the secondary option. The electrical wiring in the Community Center is being brought up to code. The town is looking into purchasing a mosquito fogger with Tekoa, but needs more information. (Source: Town clerk Shelly Wood)

Rockford City Council – A local Boy Scout made a presentation asking to make some dugout benches for the ballpark as his Eagle Scout project. Council members approved his request. The town is also seeking a Spokane County Parks Department grant for $10,000 to replace the foul fence and backstop at the ballpark. They discussed whether to rebuild the engine of a “rodder” truck used for sewer line maintenance or purchase a new one. No decision was made. (Source: Town clerk)
