Onsted council deadlocks on apartment rent survey, tables rental decision
Summary
A motion to obtain a rent survey for the 108½ South Main apartment failed on a 3-3 tie. The council then voted to table the rental contract until next month for further consideration.
The Onsted Village Council on June 8 debated a rental contract and related questions about office space, taxes and water billing for an apartment at 108½ South Main.
Councilmember Steve Muth moved to obtain a rent survey of local one- and two-bedroom apartments as a comparative study for setting rent; Mike Slick supported the motion. A roll-call vote resulted in Ayes from Muth, Village President Robert Schafer and Slick, and Nays from Keri Jeffords, Libby Chase and Shannon Kropp, producing a 3–3 tie and causing the motion to fail. Following that tie, Councilmember Shannon Kropp moved, and Councilmember Steve Muth supported, to table the 108½ South Main rental decision until next month; that motion carried.
The vote leaves the village without a directed rent-comparison study and defers final decisions on the office/apartment arrangement to the next regular council meeting. The transcript does not specify a date for return of the item or detail required elements for a future rent study.
