Town of Speedway council approves ordinance creating Speedway Youth Athletic Director position

The Town of Speedway Council approved Ordinance 1425 at its April 6, 2026, meeting, adding a new Speedway Youth Athletic Director position to the town salary ordinance and setting a maximum salary for the role.

President Jason Dile called the meeting to order at 5:00 p.m. and led introductions. During the second reading of Ordinance 1425, council members were told the change to the existing salary ordinance (Ordinance 1419) was limited to establishing the new position and establishing its salary cap; the transcript did not specify the dollar amount for that cap.

A motion to approve the ordinance was made and seconded. The council voted to approve Ordinance 1425 by a tally of 4 in favor and 1 opposed. The transcript records the outcome but does not attribute the motion, the second, or individual votes to specific council members.

Council members named during introductions included President Jason Dile; Town Manager Grant Kleinhens; Councilor Nick Sturgeon; Councilor Sean Herald; Councilor Vince Knob; and Vice President Sarah Gart. Phillip joined remotely via Microsoft Teams; two members were noted as absent. The meeting lasted about three minutes and was adjourned at 5:03 p.m.

The ordinance was handled as a second reading and approved at the meeting. The transcript does not record additional discussion, amendments to the ordinance text, or the specific salary figure for the new position. Any implementation steps, hiring timetable, or budgetary source for the salary were not specified in the meeting record.
