Summary

Village Administrator Ben told trustees the village will switch its email security provider from 'Grama' to 'ANKI' and will propose changes to reconcile divergent sick-leave policies after the public-works dissolution; he also promoted upcoming events and training opportunities.

Village Administrator Ben (S6) briefed trustees on administrative matters during his report. He said the village will move from a company called "Grama" to a different email-security provider named "ANKI" to improve quarantine and malware handling, and he encouraged trustees to watch for a slightly different email banner.

Ben also described ongoing work to reconcile sick-time policies that diverged after the dissolution of the public-works department: civilian staff typically have four hours per month, public-works employees retained eight hours per month from their prior union contract, and police civilian staff averaged 12 hours per month. He said staff will prepare a proposed policy to bring to the board at the next meeting. He additionally noted upcoming events (a Chamber of Commerce dinner Sept. 10 and Swansea Day at Grizzly Stadium on Aug. 16) and public-safety training opportunities offered by regional agencies.
