Council adopts emergency protection contract with Troy Township for 2026
Summary
Lexington Council unanimously adopted Resolution No. 26-02 to enter a 2026 emergency protection contract with the Board of Township Trustees of Troy Township. Council waived committee and second-reading rules and approved the $4,000-per-year arrangement proposed by Troy Township.
Lexington Village Council voted unanimously Feb. 2 to adopt Resolution No. 26-02, authorizing a 2026 contract for emergency protection with the Board of Township Trustees of Troy Township.
Council President Wynn Kearns moved to waive the rule that resolutions originate in a standing committee and to waive the rule requiring two separate readings; both procedural waivers passed 7–0. Kearns then moved to adopt the resolution; Councilwoman Kim Little seconded the adoption, and a roll-call vote recorded seven yeas, zero nays and zero abstentions.
During discussion before the adoption, Councilman Keith Bacin asked whether the costs had been revisited. Mayor Bob Jarvis said the $4,000-per-year figure was reasonable and had been proposed by Troy Township. The motion carried and the resolution was adopted as an emergency measure.
The resolution authorizes the Village to enter the specified 2026 emergency protection contract with Troy Township. Details of implementation, including any operational or billing terms, were not specified in the meeting record.
