Council introduced and moved to adopt an ordinance authorizing an agreement with CMG Contracting LLC to design and construct a salt‑storage building for the Village of South Russell. The motion described the contract amount as “not to exceed $770,000.704” and asked the mayor to execute the agreement on the village's behalf; council declared an emergency and moved to waive readings.
