Summary
At its Jan. 22 meeting the Greenwood Common Council passed a second‑reading resolution naming an ADA coordinator, approved a conflicts‑of‑interest list, added a walk‑on ordinance to the agenda and introduced several other ordinances and resolutions for later action.
The Greenwood Common Council on Jan. 22 approved a second‑reading resolution naming the city engineer as the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) coordinator and took a voice vote to approve a list of conflicts of interest disclosed by council members and other officials. The council also added a walk‑on ordinance to the end of new business and introduced several ordinances and resolutions for future hearings.
Resolution 2417, a second‑reading resolution to "appoint the current city engineer as the ADA coordinator," was sponsored by Council Member Campbell and passed on second reading by roll call. The council completed a roll call vote recorded in the meeting as unanimous; the presiding officer announced "Resolution 2417 passes second reading 8‑0."
Council members moved to add Ordinance 2505 as a walk‑on item to be considered at the end of new business; the motion was moved by Council Member Gibson and seconded by Council Member Williams and added to the agenda by voice vote.
The council read and approved a multi‑page list of conflicts of interest for members and other city officials; the item was approved by voice vote "unanimously with the appropriate abstentions," and the clerk said abstentions would be noted in the minutes where applicable.
Other items introduced for future consideration included: - Resolution 2501: adoption of a fiscal plan for the proposed annexation (Aberdeen) of approximately 100.67 acres (introduced; fiscal plan discussion to return after Planning Commission review). - Ordinance 2501: annexation ordinance to place the same territory within the Greenwood corporate boundaries (introduced; no final council action at this meeting). - Resolution 2502: continuation of a long‑standing fire protection agreement with Pleasant Township (presentation made; council indicated a need to suspend rules for consideration). - Resolution 2503: authorization to apply for a 2025 county local credit community bond grant in the amount of $9,474 (introduced). - Ordinance 2503: salary ordinance to add a part‑time Mobile Integrated Health Coordinator to the fire department (introduced). - Ordinance 2504: appropriation of $45,000 from the opioid settlement restricted fund for the coordinator position (introduced).
