Library reports 848 checkouts in January; clerk notes auditors, training closure and possible $10,000 comp‑plan savings; resident raises range accessibility
Summary
Library Director Michaela Woodward reported 848 checkouts and an Easter event March 28; Clerk Laurie Sweeney said there will be no February election, auditors visiting this week, and a March 27 office closure for training; representatives Martensen & Eisele said they would contact the comprehensive‑plan contractor to explore allowing M&E to finish the contract and possibly save about $10,000. Resident Michael Schinpec raised shooting‑range and archery‑range accessibility concerns during public comment.
Library Director Michaela Woodward told trustees the library had 848 checkouts and 291 visits in January and that an Easter event is scheduled for March 28.
Village Clerk Laurie Sweeney said there will be no election in February, that the clerk’s office will be closed March 27 for required clerk training, and that auditors (Martensen & Eisele) will be on site Wednesday and Thursday of the same week for the audit. Representatives identified as Martensen & Eisele offered to contact the company working on the village comprehensive plan to ask whether the village could terminate that contractor and allow Martensen & Eisele (M&E) to finish the plan; if the contractor agrees, the change could save about $10,000.
During public comment, resident Michael Schinpec asked about the shooting range, suggested targets, and requested handicap stations at the archery range. The board said the range committee will meet in spring and Clerk Sweeney will add Schinpec to the committee email list.
The transcript records these items as reports and public comment; no formal board action on the comprehensive‑plan contractor or on shooting‑range changes was recorded at the meeting.
