Meeting Notes

1. Sidewalk Installation on State Route 66

   Council passed a resolution declaring it necessary to install sidewalks on the east side of State Route 66 north of Eagle Plaza in the village, addressing a block section without sidewalks. The resolution passed its second reading and will proceed to a third reading at the final meeting next month. Part of the installation costs will be assessed back to the property owners adjacent to the section.

2. North Hamilton Street Reconstruction

   Council approved a resolution for a complete street reconstruction on North Hamilton Street from 5th Street to 7th Street. The project includes curbing, gutters, drive approaches, asphalt, and new utilities. Similar to the sidewalk project, part of the project costs will be assessed to property owners that abut the street.

3. Opposition to House Bill 335

   Council passed a resolution opposing House Bill 335, which seeks to eliminate the inside millage on property taxes. This elimination would reduce inside millage revenues by about $350,000, impacting the general fund that supports the police department, fire department, public works, and parks department. The resolution will be sent to local representatives and Governor Mike DeWine.

4. Employee Reclassification for Wastewater and Water Treatment Operators

   Council moved two employees to new classification positions due to their obtained licenses. Matthew Dawson was reclassified to an Operator 4 position with a new salary of $28.26, and Dustin Thobe was similarly moved to an Operator 4 position with a salary of $29.50. Both hold a Class 2 wastewater and a Class 2 water treatment license.
