Summary

At its March 9 meeting, the Village of Pinckney council unanimously approved moving remaining ARPA funds to pay for new water meter radios, approved a market-based pay adjustment for the deputy clerk, and formally accepted a resignation. All motions passed on unanimous roll-call votes.

The Village of Pinckney council voted unanimously March 9 to transfer remaining American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) funds to cover the purchase of new water meter radios, to adjust the deputy clerk's pay to match the local market, and to accept a resignation that was read during public comment.

The resolutions were introduced and approved during the regular council meeting at Village Council Chambers. Councilmember Self moved to transfer the remaining ARPA funds for the meter-radio purchase; Councilmember Bierman seconded, and the motion carried on a unanimous roll-call vote. Later, Councilmember Coppersmith moved to adjust the deputy clerk's pay, with Self seconding; that motion also passed unanimously.

Earlier in the meeting resident Keri Hochertz read a letter announcing her decision to resign. Councilmember Self moved to accept the resignation; Coppersmith seconded and the council approved the motion on a unanimous roll-call vote, formally recording the resignation in the minutes.

The council also approved the consent agenda after Councilmember Coppersmith requested removal of a sentence from the Feb. 21 draft minutes; Coppersmith moved the consent agenda, Bierman seconded, and the consent motion passed on a unanimous roll-call vote.

No dissenting votes were recorded on these items. The meeting record does not specify which ARPA account balance was used beyond the notation that remaining ARPA funds will cover the meter-radio purchase, nor does it provide a dollar amount for the deputy clerk pay adjustment.
