Bloomville council approves minutes, warrants and variance for Tavern 19
Summary
At its May 20 meeting, the Bloomville Village Council approved May 6 minutes and warrants (both 5-0) and granted a variance for Tavern 19 at 31 South Marion Street after a hearing; council provided a finance snapshot and scheduled follow-ups on several matters.
Mayor Pro Tempore Sonya Larson opened the Bloomville Village Council meeting on May 20, 2026, and the council moved quickly through routine business, approving two procedural motions and granting a land-use variance.
Carol Adams moved to approve and suspend the reading of the May 6, 2026 minutes; Rick Franklin seconded the motion and the council voted 5-0 to carry the measure. Tabitha Sorg then moved to approve the warrants, with Franklin again seconding; that motion also passed 5-0.
The council heard a variance request for 31 South Marion Street (Tavern 19). After discussion during the hearing the council approved the variance with no objections. The record does not specify a formal roll-call vote for the variance; the council noted the approval was granted following the hearing.
Council members received a financial snapshot for village funds: General $644,576.94; M & R Fund $162,240.86; State Highway $37,884.27; Police Fund $18,887.46 (including a $15,000 aside for a cruiser); Recreation Fund $50,104.15 (Beeghly Trust $162,000 noted); and MVLT $27,293.20. Mayor’s Court reported three citations (one paid, two parking violations).
The council did not adopt additional ordinances or resolutions at this meeting. The variance approval and routine motions conclude the formal actions recorded for May 20; council indicated other items — including an alley vacation and related surveys — will return when solicitor guidance is available.
