Council adopts schedules, ratifies small donations and reviews personnel manual and phone charges
Summary
Ferron City Council adopted the 2025 meeting schedules, ratified a $75 donation for a Wilbur mine remembrance ad, discussed personnel manual changes (bereavement and hourly definitions) and authorized routine phone charges; a closed session was later convened.
At its meeting, Ferron City Council adopted the published meeting schedule and the planning-and-zoning calendar for 2025. The council approved a $75 donation to a local remembrance for the Wilbur mine disaster; the amount was confirmed as already being in the budget.
Council discussed changes to the draft personnel manual, including bereavement leave language and hourly-work thresholds for part-time staff. Members asked for a marked-up draft and a list of specific items they each want to review before returning the manual for formal adoption.
The council reviewed phone and device service costs for staff and council: reported monthly amounts included $29–$34 for some devices; a motion to accept the new phone charges was made and the chair recorded 'Motion carries.' Other routine business included license updates, parks and cemetery maintenance discussion and approval to pay municipal bills. The council also moved into a closed session later in the agenda.
