Council approves mobile vendors for Little League and veterans walkathon, renews police reciprocal-aid resolution
Summary
Richmond council approved two special-event mobile-vendor requests (Kona Ice for Little League tournaments; R.J.'s Dog House for a veterans Walk for Warriors) and adopted Resolution 2026-8 renewing a reciprocal aid agreement for county police response.
The Richmond City Council on April 20 approved two special-event mobile-food vendor requests and unanimously adopted a renewal of the county reciprocal police-aid agreement.
Council approved a Kona Ice vendor for both the Richmond Lady Blue Devils tournament on May 2–3 and the Richmond Blue Devils tournament on June 6–7; council members said the vendor has appeared at major tournaments in previous years and helps concession operations during busy events.
The council also approved a mobile vendor for the Veterans of Smco Walk for Warriors fundraiser on May 2 at Trail Head Park and McCome Orchard Trail. Organizer Eric Bon told council the event benefits Operation Injured Soldiers (based in South Lion, Michigan) and includes programming for veteran recreation and suicide-prevention efforts; the motion specified hours for the food truck (10 a.m.–5 p.m.).
Separately, council adopted Resolution 2026-8 to approve a reciprocal aid agreement and response protocol among police agencies in Mcome County; staff said the agreement updates minor wording from a 2017 city adoption but does not change the substance of mutual-aid commitments.
All three items were decided by voice vote; the transcript does not record numeric roll-call tallies.
