Council approves Tree Board 2026 plan; authorizes temporary liquor-permit application for downtown St. Patty's Bay Bar Crawl
Summary
Council moved and recorded affirmative votes to approve the Tree Board's 2026 annual plan and sponsored a motion authorizing staff to sign an F-2 temporary liquor-permit application for a downtown event on March 7, 2026; staff said they have no objection and will proceed with required filings.
Tipp City Council voted on a set of routine items on Jan. 20, including approval of the Tree Board's 2026 annual plan and action to allow city staff to sign a temporary liquor-permit application for a downtown event on March 7.
Karen Jackson, a Tree Board member, presented the board's 2026 annual plan and appealed for an additional member, describing the board's six-meetings-per-year schedule and its advisory role. A motion to approve the Tree Board plan was moved and seconded; the public hearing on the item was opened, no members of the public spoke in opposition, and the clerk recorded affirmative votes.
Council also considered a motion authorizing the police chief and the city manager to sign an F-2 temporary liquor-permit application for the Tipp City Partnership's Saint Patty's Bay Bar Crawl on March 7, 2026. "The city has no objections with this this permit," Mister Mac said when presenting the request, and the motion was moved and seconded.
The clerk later called the roll and recorded 'Yes' confirmations from council members on the record for the matters before the body, indicating approval on the public record. The motions were treated as routine approvals; no conditions or amendments were recorded in the transcript.
What happens next: Staff will complete permit paperwork for the downtown event and the Tree Board will proceed under its approved 2026 plan; the Tree Board remains short one member per the board's appeal for volunteers.
