Oct. 13 meeting

KEY ACTION: Agreed by emergency measure to terminate the position of water clerk. Administrative Assistant Brittany Long will pick up those responsibilities.

DISCUSSION: The decision was made following an executive session to discuss personnel. Council President Randy Cadle said combining the two jobs will save the village $150 per week.

OTHER ACTION

  • Agreed to look into whether an alley that runs behind McComb's Market near South Street was to remain open. A resident said the alley had been grandfathered in when her property was purchased years ago but is now blocked off.

  • Will have an ordinance drawn up to address free range poultry and other fowl running loose and onto community property.

  • Agreed to raise the fine for those who are not in compliance with the cleanup ordinance. It is currently $10 and council agreed it should be up to $100, with $50 per day for every day the resident is not in compliance. Solicitor Greg Swope said he will have an ordinance ready to sign at the next meeting.
