Summary
Trustees approved several routine and administrative items including Messer Municipal Law Firm invoices, CivicPlus ordinance-hosting, a one-year government-relations contract with CMA Strategies, Garber invoices for completed work, and Blue Cross/Blue Shield benefits coverage option 4 for employees.
During its meeting, the Town of Hoagetown Board of Trustees approved multiple administrative items in addition to the larger actions reported separately.
Key approvals and outcomes:
