Delhi Hills trustees approve $20,000 event grant, IT recovery plan and a package of nuisance abatements
Summary
At their May 27 meeting, Delhi Hills trustees approved a $20,000 Hamilton County small-event grant, adopted an IT disaster-recovery resolution to meet new state requirements, accepted several personnel resignations, and passed a series of nuisance/vegetation assessment resolutions; votes were unanimous.
The Delhi Hills Board of Trustees on May 27 approved a package of routine and emergency-designated actions, including a county event grant, an information-technology disaster recovery plan and multiple nuisance/vegetation abatement assessments.
The board adopted Resolution 2026-053 authorizing the administrator to enter a funding agreement with Hamilton County to administer a 2026 small-event grant. The marketing and events director said the $20,000 reimbursement grant will help offset lawn-event costs. "This is a $20,000 grant," the director said during discussion.
Trustees also adopted Resolution 2026-054 establishing an information-technology disaster recovery plan, which the administrator said is intended to meet new state cybersecurity and IT-management requirements. The board moved to dispense with a second reading and passed the resolution by roll call.
Personnel and routine financial motions carried by unanimous voice vote: the board approved minutes for April 29 and May 13, authorized overtime pay for the May 12 pay period, approved payment of bills, accepted the voluntary resignation of part-time firefighter/EMT Zachary B. McGovern effective June 3, 2026, and accepted the resignation of auxiliary police officer Brent A. KI (effective May 19, 2026). Trustees also approved an extension of injury-on-duty leave for Fire Lieutenant Brian D. Sunhouse through Sept. 30, 2026.
A series of abatement and nuisance resolutions (2026-055 through 2026-064) were introduced, dispensed with a second reading, and adopted to certify abatement expenses at multiple addresses and send assessments to the county auditor. Administrator Miller and public-works staff said the measures support June tax-duplicate processing and address excessive vegetation and related cleanup needs.
Fiscal report highlights: the acting fiscal officer reported first-half bond payments of roughly $743,000 and TIF payments totaling approximately $1.45 million to local school entities; a police cruiser purchase of $41,000 was also noted.
Votes at a glance: all motions and resolutions recorded at the meeting passed on unanimous votes (three "Yes" recorded on roll calls where the board used voice/roll call). The board set a follow-up schedule for agenda items and community announcements; its next meeting is June 10, 2026.
What's next: Staff will execute the Hamilton County funding agreement for the small-event grant and proceed with IT-plan implementation; nuisance abatements will be assessed to properties via the county auditor process, and trustees will receive updates as those actions are implemented.
