Public commenters preview festival plans and criticize utility-deposit ordinance
Summary
During public comment, Al Corwin updated the board on Summer Festival programming and Jim Hurley expressed dissatisfaction with an ordinance requiring deposits for new utility service requests.
Al Corwin addressed the board with an update on the Sheffield Summer Festival, listing planned activities including a 5K, live performers and a petting zoo; the minutes record the committee’s planned carnival, kids parade and advance ticket sales in the near future. Corwin said the committee aims to have pavilion concrete work done before the festival.
Jim Hurley, the next public commenter, told the board he was dissatisfied with an ordinance that requires new requests for services at a property to provide a deposit when initiating utility service for water, sewer and waste disposal. The minutes record Hurley’s concern but do not show any immediate staff response or board action on the ordinance during the April 8 meeting.
