Summary

Council accepted revised committee assignments (first‑page version) after noting errors on a second page; members also reported on a site visit to Grand View Heights and received an update on director of public services hiring.

Councilors moved to accept the first page of revised committee assignments after identifying mistakes on a circulated second page and agreed to disregard the incorrect page. The motion to accept the committee assignments carried on a unanimous vote.

Council members discussed whether representation on outside boards (for example the Wauseon Recreation Association and the Tree Commission) is an appointment or a council representation role and agreed to consult the relevant bylaws for clarification. Council President Shane Chamberlain noted constraints on multiple council members attending external board meetings together to avoid constituting a public meeting of the full council.

Separately, Councilors reported a site visit to Grand View Heights (outside of Columbus) to view a modern municipal administration building; engineer Joe Weathman took photos to share with council. Council also received an update that interviews for the director of public services position are being scheduled, with a candidate selection expected by mid‑March. The council then approved routine bills and adjourned the meeting.
