Council adds emergency tax-distribution resolution and schedules Republic Services trash-hauling ordinance
Summary
Clerk moved to add two items to finance & legislation: an emergency resolution authorizing the auditor to request advanced distribution of 2026 real property tax collections and an ordinance authorizing a contract with Republic Services for trash hauling; both motions were seconded and scheduled for further committee consideration.
During the finance and legislation portion of the meeting, the clerk asked the committee to add two pieces of legislation to the docket and to schedule committee meetings.
The first item was described as a routine resolution authorizing the auditor to request and receive the advanced distribution of real property tax collections from the Mahoning County Auditor for calendar year 2026 and declaring an emergency. The clerk moved to bring the resolution forward and a committee member made a motion and second.
The second item is an ordinance authorizing the mayor and safety-service director to enter into a contract with Republic Services for trash-hauling services for Struthers residents. The clerk said the ordinance will go through two or three readings; a committee member made a motion to bring it up and another member seconded.
The clerk scheduled the finance and legislation meeting for Wednesday, March 4 at 6:00 p.m. and noted community-development participation for part of the agenda. The motions to add the resolution and the ordinance were made and seconded on the record; the transcript does not record a formal roll-call vote or final adoption at this meeting.
Next steps: both items were placed on the committee’s schedule for further review and readings.
