Mount Orab council moves firefighter to part-time and approves police surplus items
Summary
Council approved moving Tessa King from a call status to part-time after she passed NRMT basic, and authorized several police vehicles and equipment as surplus to be sold; roll calls recorded affirmative votes from Anna, Eric, Carl and John.
The Mount Orab council approved a personnel change for the fire department and cleared a list of police surplus items for sale.
A council member reported that firefighter candidate Tessa King recently passed her NRMT basic and is currently paid as a call member. The mayor moved to change her status to part-time: “I’ll make a motion that we move Tessa King from paper pulp to part time,” the mayor said. The clerk called roll and Anna, Eric, Carl and John recorded yes votes.
Separately, the council heard a police department request to declare several items surplus — a 2010 Chevy HHR, a 2002 Chevy Express box truck, a rough-terrain forklift and rear seats from a police interceptor — and discussed selling the items through the government auction service GovDeals. The mayor moved to approve the surplus list and the roll call responses again recorded Anna, Eric, Carl and John as voting yes.
What this means: The personnel move changes Tessa King’s employment status for the fire department and the surplus designation allows the police department to dispose of older equipment by public auction.
Next steps: Personnel changes are effective per the village’s personnel procedures; surplus items will be posted for sale on GovDeals or a similar government auction platform.
