the 1st quarter of our current fiscal year. There is some concern about high Repair and maintenance costs to start but these are largely due to high mileage vehicles. There is optimism
for lower fuel prices going forward this year.

for the need of two attendants on Halloween this Friday. Dennis Sines was going to reach out to EJ Hanson.

to meet and discuss Jefferson Lines relocation. They are no longer at the East Main stop and we man need to use Galavan to help in the process.

Nominations
– In need of Sub Chair. A letter was sent to Belgrade City as well as Patty Gunderson requesting the appointment of a new representative due to the lack of attendance. No response has
yet been received.
Public Stakeholders – Jeff Rupp: Jeff mentioned some ongoing signage issues with the downtown transfer station. The approval of bus shelters within the City has been
very slow going. Shelters outside of the City are up and looking good!

doing an exceptional job!
