During the mayor’s report the board invited the owner of BP Gas and Market to describe a planned holiday donation. The speaker identified an offer to donate about $1,500–$2,000 in turkeys to families in need before Thanksgiving and asked village staff for assistance publicizing the effort and coordinating distribution; the mayor suggested promoting the donation via the village Facebook page and reaching out to community groups and volunteers.

The board expressed appreciation and suggested enlisting local youth/volunteer groups to assist with distribution and promotion. No formal action or funding was requested; the offer was shared as community goodwill and will be coordinated by village staff and the donor.
