Council approves routine resolutions, personnel hires and equipment purchases
Summary
The council approved multiple housekeeping resolutions (comprehensive plan adoption, grant policy, purchase-card policy, conflict-of-interest, CIP), approved a new public works supervisor hire and several equipment purchases, and introduced a supplemental appropriation ordinance.
The Crooks City Council moved through a slate of routine but consequential governance items during the meeting. Resolutions adopted included the comprehensive plan (Resolution 2026-02), a re-adopted conflict-of-interest policy, a grant-administration policy, a purchase-card policy, and the capital improvement plan; roll-call votes were recorded for each resolution as shown in the meeting minutes.
Council also approved an updated organizational chart renaming the public works director to public works supervisor and voted to hire Todd for that position. In procurement and budget items the council approved copier purchase and maintenance agreement motions and tire purchases for heavy equipment. The council introduced Ordinance 3-73 (a supplemental appropriation) to add budget authority for unresolved baseball-field title issues and equipment, with additional details to be finalized in subsequent meetings.
Councilors were reminded of petition and election timelines related to a proposed ordinance to stagger terms and align elections with even‑year county ballots; staff said a reverse reading could be ready by the second January meeting. The council adjourned after completing these items.
