Fayash rebutted that he spoke at the last meeting that now they can separate the salt and the anti skid with the new shed, and that they would try different mixes to avoid an excess of use of the anti skid.• The board agreed to purchase 140 tons of salt.• Leskin also asked whether the board was moving forward with the request to install a PA system in the room.
