The New York Mills City Council on Jan. 13 rescinded a prior resolution that had purported to approve a labor agreement with the local police union after city staff discovered the agreement had not been formally accepted by the union.

Resolution No. 01-13-2026b rescinded Resolution No. 12-09-2025b, which had been presented at the Dec. 9, 2025 meeting. Clerk Treasurer Julie Roberts explained to the council that she believed the police union contract had been approved and signed but later found it had not been formally signed by the union. Roberts said she anticipates the union will sign the proposed language and that the contract will likely be ready for the February council meeting.

Councilor Hammond moved to approve the rescission; Councilor Maki seconded the motion and the council carried it unanimously. No further action was taken following a later closed-session item related to a land transaction.
