The Village Board convened for its 3,300th meeting on June 10, 2024, with all trustees present. The meeting commenced with the Pledge of Allegiance, followed by a reminder for residents to access meeting agendas and minutes online.
The agenda featured two key presentations: one from Philly Special and another from a developer proposing an apartment complex on Butterfield Road. The board is expected to deliberate on motions related to this development later in the evening. Additionally, the sale of the public works building, currently housing the one-line tool library, was on the agenda, as part of ongoing discussions regarding the bank triangle area.
Trustee Jenny Ross was initially slated to read a proclamation under public works, but it was decided to move this item to the mayor's report for consistency. The board approved the motion to adjust the agenda, ensuring a streamlined process for the evening's proceedings.
The meeting also included a public commentary segment, allowing residents to voice their concerns or opinions. The first speaker, Gail Becky, introduced herself and prepared to address the board, highlighting the meeting's commitment to community engagement.
As the evening progressed, the board planned to address various business items, including the Liquor Control Commission meeting, which will follow the mayor's report, maintaining a consistent format from previous meetings.
