At this time, we have used 1200 of that. We only have 600 in the bank. We have a <br />long way to go. You may see some greater cutbacks in our salt usage from here on out. <br />Also, at the next caucus, Mr. Metzung would like to have the rubbish bids on the agenda. He <br />would like to discuss the alternatives we will be looking at in our rubbish bid process. <br />Council President Buckholtz said he spoke to Mr. Nichols, who indicated that he dropped off a <br />list to Mr. Metzung.
