The council then voted to suspend the rules and declare an emergency (motion by McCort, second by Campbell; vote: all ayes) and passed the ordinance to approve a part-time contract employee to assist the village treasurer (motion to pass by Kilgore, seconded by McCort; vote: all ayes). The ordinance was enacted under emergency procedures at the April 21 meeting; the transcript provides the ordinance title but does not specify salary, contract length, or contractor name.
