During a recent government meeting, city officials discussed several key community projects and public safety updates.

City Manager Jack provided an update on the completion of the Wolf Creek water main replacement project, thanking the community for their patience during the construction. He announced that a new contractor will begin resurfacing the road at the end of summer, which is expected to be a quicker process with improved traffic management. The project aims to address settling issues that have caused uneven road surfaces.

Fire Chief Ron Fletcher was absent due to an emergency call regarding a building collapse in Piermont, but his report was noted. Meanwhile, Police Chief Doug Terrone addressed a recent concern about a potential skimmer at a local gas station. He confirmed that after a thorough investigation, no skimmers were found, and emphasized the importance of reporting such incidents directly to the police rather than through social media. He highlighted the negative impact that unfounded rumors can have on local businesses, citing a 50% revenue drop for the gas station involved during the incident.

The meeting also included a reminder about the upcoming Brookville block party and craft fair scheduled for June 15, where the police department will assist with traffic management.

Law Director Rod Steffen reported no updates, and the meeting concluded with a focus on community engagement and safety.
