Summary

Council accepted a letter from Senator Shane Wilkin endorsing Senate Bill 56’s tax allocation, voted to add it to the record, approved resolutions including 25-55 (certificates >$3,000 to IAMGIS) and 25-56 (water supply revolving loan application), and heard a first reading of a cybersecurity ordinance.

The Ironton City Council recorded communications from state and local offices, approved routine finance items and moved several resolutions.

Speaker 3 presented a certified letter from Senator Shane Wilkin (Ohio Senate) responding to the council; Wilkin said passing Senate Bill 56 would be a step forward and noted that 36% of cannabis tax revenue in the senator’s plan would be used to support public safety services. The council moved and voted to include the senator’s letter in the meeting record.

The council took several votes: Resolution 25-54 (noted as having received a favorable finance recommendation) was moved to the table and the motion carried by roll-call vote. Resolution 25-55, to approve in-and-out certificates in excess of $3,000 for payment to IAMGIS, received a favorable finance recommendation and was approved by roll-call vote. Resolution 25-56, to apply for and enter into a water supply revolving loan, was moved and passed by roll-call vote.

On ordinances, the council heard a first reading (by title) of an ordinance to adopt a cybersecurity program and declared an emergency first reading. The council also read ordinance 25-57 (prohibiting registered *** offenders from being present on school property or at school-related events) by title; that ordinance will continue through the readings process.

Administrative notes: the council reiterated that the next meeting will be Dec. 22 at 6 p.m. (moved earlier because the fourth Thursday is on Christmas Day), scheduled an industrial and commercial committee meeting at 5 p.m. before the Dec. 22 council meeting, and asked staff to inspect pavement dips on South Park Street.
