Summary

Following recognition of long-serving counsel Joe Legnard, trustees appointed Patrick Shefference as the village attorney by voice vote and asked that he sit in the former attorney's place at future meetings.

The board voted to appoint Patrick Shefference as the village attorney, replacing long‑time counsel Joe Legnard, who is stepping down for health reasons.

The chair praised Legnard’s 40 years of service and suggested trustees stand and applaud: "Can we just stand and give him a round of applause? Thanks, Joe." The chair then asked for questions for Patrick; none were raised and the trustees approved the appointment by voice vote.

The chair asked Shefference to sit in the same seat Legnard used at future meetings so he could advise the board as needed.
