Summary

Council approved up to $400 for Halloween activities and heard public comments: the Kraft Building has been shown to potential buyers, aldermen discussed banning leaf burning and revisiting street-sweeping attachments, and Amy Buss of the Rotary announced an Oct. 19 human-trafficking awareness walk.

Alderman Paul Kaczmarski moved and the council approved a motion authorizing Halloween activities expenses not to exceed $400; the roll call vote was 6–0 in favor. The motion was procedural and intended to underwrite community festivities.

During general audience time Alderman Mike Risko said the Kraft Building had been shown several times recently and he would provide updates if a buyer is interested. Alderman Jody Wolber asked the council to consider banning leaf burning and having the street department sweep leaves up; Mayor Carl Bates said the council had previously looked at getting an attachment and agreed it was time to revisit that option. Amy Buss from the Rotary announced a walk to raise awareness for human trafficking on October 19, 2024.
