Milroy council appoints Mary Dahmes to fill council seat
Summary
The Milroy City Council unanimously appointed Mary Dahmes to the council at its Feb. 23 meeting and gave her the oath of office; the council also approved routine consent items and reviewed claims totaling $31,044.65.
Mayor Margaret Sik and the Milroy City Council unanimously appointed Mary Dahmes to the council during its Feb. 23, 2026 meeting and administered her oath of office; Dahmes will serve through Dec. 31, 2026.
The appointment followed initial procedural business at the 6:30 p.m. meeting, including approval of the agenda. The council then approved the consent agenda by unanimous vote; items included the Jan. 26 regular meeting minutes, fire contracts, Resolution #5.2026 designating surplus property, and claims payable (checks #12987–13010) totaling $11,880.15 plus electronic payments of $19,164.50.
The appointment filled a council vacancy; the transcript records the appointment and the oath but does not list a named mover and second for that specific motion. The clerk, Betsy Snyder, recorded the administrative items and later noted logistical updates including activation of city cell phones and the creation of a city Facebook page.
The council will next meet on March 23, 2026, when members expect to review a clean copy of proposed personnel-policy changes and other business.
