Summary

A resident asked the board to record concerns about short notice for the sanitation budget posting, requested tonnage figures be posted for public review and asked that a staff presenter speak before the board adopts the budget.

During public comment a resident said the sanitation budget was posted with only one day’s notice and asked that the board post tonnage figures so residents can examine the data before a final vote. The speaker asked the board to invite Meredith (a staff member referenced in the comment) to present answers at a work session before adoption.

The resident said prior practice included staff presentations that helped trustees and the public understand budget details. The speaker asked that the commission post the sanitation tonnage information and allow time for public review and feedback prior to finalizing the budget; no formal board response or commitment to post the data was recorded in the meeting transcript.

The speaker closed with thanks to village staff and Thanksgiving wishes.
