DPW
DPW Superintendent Valentine informed the Board of Trustees
that he is getting pricing to replace piping at the DPW shop since his
inventory is getting low, and needs more in case there are more water breaks.
Superintendent Valentine discussed that after the new pumps were replaced that
it took days to fill the tank, but the water quality is better now than it has
been in a few years. Superintendent Valentine also discussed that he and
maintenance worker Stacy VanBuren have been working hard to make sure any and
all equipment is maintained to keep up with snow removal this winter.
WATER
BILLS
3 water bills were approved to be
adjusted, resident Sherry Harrington, since her water has been turned off since
November of 2022, the Presbyterian Church, since something is wrong with their
new meter, and an unknown that was generated by the water software program.
MIKE
HUTCHERSON-VILLAGE INSURANCE
Mike discussed with the Board of Trustees
that the Village now has Selective Insurance Company, instead of Trident since
Trident wanted over $16,000.00 and Selective Insurance is offering us the same
coverage for just under $13,000.00. Mike also discussed the policy on abuse
prevention and why it’s important for the Village to have it in place, and
asked the Board to adopt it.
RESOLVED, upon motion of Trustee
Harvey, seconded by Deputy Mayor Feulner, unanimously carried.
