Summary

The Tallmadge City Council approved committee chairs/vice chairs, appointed Lindsay Holm trustee for the Richardson Trust Fund, reappointed two firefighter members and confirmed Chip Billows as the at-large firefighter-dependency board member; Dave Klein was appointed to the firefighters dependency fund legislative authority.

Council leadership announced committee assignments for the year and the full council approved a slate of appointments during the Jan. 12 organizational meeting.

Committee leadership named by the council included: Planning & Zoning (Chair: Ted Roy; Vice Chair: Lindsay Holm); Finance (Chair: Dave Klein; Vice Chair: Don Pavlik); Personnel (Chair: Jonathan Bolas; Vice Chair: Dave Klein); Community Issues (Chair: Don Pavlik; Vice Chair: Tracy Fletcher); Safety (Chair: Tracy Fletcher; Vice Chair: Ted Roy); and Public Service (Chair: Lindsay Holm; Vice Chair: Jonathan Bolas). These assignments were announced by the presiding official and accepted without extended debate.

The council then approved several appointments: Lindsay Holm was appointed trustee of the Richardson Trust Fund by roll-call vote; Councilman Dave Klein was appointed to the Firefighters Dependency Fund legislative authority; firefighters Sandy Ray and Brian White were reappointed to the Firefighters Dependency Fund; and Chip Billows was approved to continue as the at-large member of the Firefighters Dependency Fund. The clerk conducted roll-call votes on each appointment; the recorded roll-call responses in each instance were unanimous in favor.

The meeting record includes a transcription anomaly when the clerk announced the vote result for Chip Billows as '6 2 0' (see clarifying details). Individual roll-call entries show all council members voting yes during that item; the council accepted the appointments and moved on to calendar business.

The appointments take effect immediately and will be reflected in council records and committee rosters.
