Willard City Council on Nov. 3, 2025 approved an $860,783 contract for police station renovations with Janotta and Herner of Monroeville, Ohio, and declared the work an emergency to accelerate contracting.
The ordinance (6011-25) was presented by title and the council voted first to waive the seven-day layover and then to adopt the measure. Both motions were moved by Councilmember Olson and seconded by Councilmember Danhoff. The votes on both motions were recorded as yea from Babcock, Danhoff, Daniel, Elmlinger and Olson; Sattig voted no.
The ordinance authorizes the City Manager to enter into the contract and designates the work as an emergency, allowing the city to proceed without the standard seven-day waiting period. A second ordinance with similar language (6012-25) was presented later in the meeting but the motion to waive its layover failed.
The council record does not include further specification of project schedule, funding source, or contract start date; those details are to be handled by the City Manager under the authority granted. The council adjourned after the vote.
