Waite Hill Council approves payments resolution and emergency spending ordinance for public celebration
Summary
At its Oct. 13 meeting, the Waite Hill Village Council adopted Resolution No. 2025-12 authorizing payment of certain sums and passed Ordinance No. 2025-15, an emergency ordinance permitting the mayor to expend funds for a public celebration; both measures passed by roll call.
The Waite Hill Village Council voted Oct. 13 to adopt Resolution No. 2025-12, authorizing the payment of certain sums, and approved Ordinance No. 2025-15, an emergency measure allowing the mayor to expend Village funds for a public celebration.
Resolution No. 2025-12 was read at the meeting and, after discussion, Council member Brian Doty moved for adoption; Karl Scheucher seconded. A roll call recorded yeas from Bowden, Doty, Hiltsley, Knezevic, Scheucher, Steudel and Winterer and the resolution was adopted.
Ordinance No. 2025-15 was read for the first time. Council member Abby Hiltsley moved to suspend the rule requiring three readings; Stephanie Winterer seconded. The roll call vote to suspend the rule recorded unanimous yeas, and the ordinance was then adopted the same day as an emergency ordinance authorizing the mayor to expend Village funds for a public celebration.
A separate motion was made during the meeting to authorize the purchase of a RAM 2500 Crew Cab 4x4 (6-foot bed) at a cost of $43,641; that motion was moved and seconded but no roll-call outcome for that item appears in the provided minutes.
