St. Joseph council forms landfill task force, adds a resident member
Summary
Council approved a resolution establishing a landfill task force and unanimously voted to add an additional resident to the committee after a council amendment; the amended resolution passed 7–0.
The St. Joseph City Council voted to establish a landfill task force and to appoint individuals to serve on it, approving an amendment to include an additional resident member.
Clerk read a resolution establishing the task force to provide feedback to the council on landfill issues. A council member moved to add an additional resident — referred to in the discussion as 'Blackadier' and later as 'Bill' — to the committee membership. The motion to amend was moved, seconded and approved by the council, 7–0, and the council then approved the amended resolution by the same tally.
The transcript does not include the full membership roster or the resolution text beyond the clerk’s summary. The record shows the amendment process and unanimous approval but does not specify the task force’s reporting schedule, staff support, or start date.
Outcome and next steps: The amended resolution establishing the landfill task force passed 7–0. The resolution directs formation of the task force but the meeting transcript does not specify membership beyond the amendment to add the named resident, nor does it specify the task force’s charge or timeline in detail.
