Trustees approve routine items: road closures for winter festival, fountain contract and other consent items
Summary
The board approved a set of consent and action items including temporary street closures for a winter festival, a local artist fountain contract for Whistler (Woods Hollow) Park, purchase of road salt, a part-time police appointment, a water hook-up for new construction and small arts reallocation.
At the meeting trustees approved a series of routine and project-related agenda items on voice votes.
Road closures and parking restrictions: Trustees approved a motion to close Bath Street (High Street to Hamilton Street) and several side streets, and to close the Bath Street parking lot, from Friday at 7 a.m. until Saturday at 9 p.m. for a winter festival scheduled for Friday, Feb. 28 to Saturday, March 1. The motion included limited resident access on specified side streets and a prohibition on parking on the cited stretch of Bath Street.
Fountain contract: Trustees approved a contract with Jay White Creations for a new fountain at the historic spring in Woods Hollow Park (referred to in the meeting documentation and public remarks). The contract total as read at the meeting was $8,000 and the mayor was authorized to execute the agreement following review by the village.
Road salt purchase: The board authorized DPW spending of $12,330 for road salt after a motion and second; trustees noted deliveries and county coordination related to salt shortages.
Part-time police appointment: The board approved the appointment of Daryl Haberneck as a part-time police officer.
Water hookup and developer approvals: Trustees approved a request to allow new construction on Trebel Avenue (map ID read on the record) to connect to village water and authorized the mayor to execute the necessary agreement after engineer approval.
Arts funding reallocation: The board approved reallocating $500 in committee-on-the-arts funding intended for a ballet program toward a public sound-bath experience class.
Consent agenda: The board approved the consent agenda items as presented with no items pulled for separate discussion.
Ending: Most items were approved on voice votes with brief discussion or none; the winter festival road closures and the fountain contract were singled out for short public mention and support from residents and trustees.
