Overview: The Chatfield City Council meeting focused on the repair of police vehicles and budget considerations, with discussions highlighting the challenge of managing aging equipment and strategic financial planning. A significant portion of the meeting was dedicated to the ongoing issues with the city’s police cars. One vehicle, in particular, is experiencing engine problems potentially stemming from a failed catalytic converter.

The discussion included concerns about warranty coverage, with some members suggesting exploring service bulletins to potentially reduce repair costs.
