Pigeon Little League cleared to improve Field 4; council to review exclusive vending request
Summary
The Village of Pigeon Council approved improvements to Field 4 requested by Pigeon Little League and referred a request to limit Johnny T Tournament vending to the Recreation Committee for review.
Richard Kubacki, identified in the meeting as Pigeon Little League president, presented maintenance concerns and proposed improvements to Field 4, including work around home plate. After discussion, the council approved the Little League's requested improvements.
Trustee Michael Wehner moved to approve the improvements; Trustee Kent Tibbits seconded and the motion carried with all ayes. The council's approval allows the Little League to proceed with the maintenance and improvement work described to the council.
During public comment, attendee John Trowbridge asked whether the village could limit food vending at the annual Johnny T Tournament to concessions supplied by the Little League so that all proceeds from the concession stand would go back to the organization. President Michael LePage said the Recreation Committee will review that request; the council did not vote on vending exclusivity at the meeting.
Also on the agenda, Police Chief Adam Csanyi reported department highlights and said a new Speedcheck unit would be installed that week. DPW Superintendent Thomas Buschlen summarized the department's monthly activities. President LePage gave a brief update on progress and funding for the Playscape Project; no formal votes on playscape funding were recorded.
Next steps: the Recreation Committee will review the Johnny T Tournament vending request and report back to the council.
