Tom, question?
Aye. Seven are actions adopting construction documents. A is resolution adopting plans and specs for the fire station one bathroom remodel project.
I sent an email on that and asked the chief, and it's because the bathrooms have not been redone in the fire station since it was originally built, which was...
