Haynesville trustees advance ordinance amending municipal grocery occupation tax code

At a meeting of the Haynesville Board of Trustees, trustees moved to amend Title 3, Section 3.29.020 of the municipal code to revise the village's municipal grocery service occupation tax. The board took a roll-call vote and recorded ayes. The change was presented as an amendment to the municipal grocery service occupation tax in Title 3 of the municipal code. Trustees discussed the ordinance language on the record and then called for a formal vote. The board recorded votes in favor during roll call; Trustees Richmond and George Duberstein were listed as voting aye along with other trustees. No motion mover or seconder was identified in the transcript excerpt; the roll call indicates the trustees approved the motion by recorded ayes. The ordinance was described on the record as "an ordinance amending Title 3 Section 3.29.020 of the municipal code regarding the municipal grocery service occupation tax in the Village of Haynesville." The transcript does not include details on substantive changes to rates, exemptions, or implementation dates. Because the meeting transcript records only the ordinance title and the roll-call ayes, further details about legal effect, effective date, or implementation steps were not specified and would be available in the municipal clerk's finalized ordinance text. Trustees took the action under the village's municipal code authority; the transcript does not show an extended debate or public comment specific to tax rate changes. A clerk or staff member should post the final ordinance language and effective date in the village minutes or municipal code for review by residents and local businesses.
