Malcolm trustees suspend three-reading rule and adopt Ordinance 2024-04 setting compensation
Summary
Trustees suspended the three-reading requirement and passed Ordinance 2024-04 to set compensation for village employees, officials and board members; the motions passed unanimously.
The Trustees of the Village of Malcolm suspended the three-reading rule and approved Ordinance 2024-04, which sets compensation for village employees, officials and members of the board of trustees, at their Aug. 15 meeting.
Trustee Little moved to suspend the three-reading requirement for Ordinance 2024-04; Trustee Benes seconded and the motion carried on a 5–0 roll-call vote. Trustee Little then moved to approve Ordinance 2024-04; Trustee Tarr seconded and the ordinance passed 5–0.
Why it matters: the ordinance establishes the village’s pay structure for elected and appointed officials and employees. The minutes record unanimous approval but do not state specific compensation amounts in the text; the ordinance number is referenced in the minutes and should contain the detailed pay schedule in its formal text.
The board recorded no amendments to the ordinance in the minutes. The clerk is responsible for maintaining the ordinance text and making it available to the public as required by open-meetings and municipal record rules.
Next steps: implementation and any payroll adjustments will proceed according to the ordinance language and the village’s administrative procedures.
