Old Business

Mayor Ruen reviewed the audit citations that were issued for the 2003-2004 years.

 

Mayor Ruen also read the finding issued by the office of Young, Taylor and Yarger regarding the sidewalk in front of the Vince and Marge Clement residence.  In summary, it stated that Lots 87 and 88 were never platted, therefore the sidewalk is the property of the land owners.

 

Council member, Gloria Leiter, shared information about codifying the village ordinances.  Mayor Ruen will look into what needs to be done and the cost entailed.

 

New Business

Sarah Kimmet asked the council to grant an easement to the town property in order to cut down trees that are tangled in power lines.  She states that leaving the situation as is could be a safety issue if the trees were to fall down.  Councilman Louth made a motion to table this discussion until more information is gained.  Paul Price seconded the motion.  Motion carried.

 

Mayor Ruen reported that a village resident suggested that the village grass be maintained closer to the weekend.

 

Councilman Good noted that the village website was visited an average of 46 times per day in the month of August.

 

Paul Price moved to adjourn the meeting.  Meeting adjourned.

Next meeting will be on October 3, 2005.
