Mayor thanks public works for round‑the‑clock snow response
Summary
The mayor thanked Plain City public works employees for clearing roads during a record snowfall and said the village will present recognition and give four hours of paid time as a token of appreciation.
Mayor (speaker 3) opened the meeting by recognizing the Village of Plain City public works department for its response to a significant January snowfall and the subsequent level‑3 emergency declared by the governor. "It is my pleasure as mayor of the Village Of Plain City to recognize the hardworking employees of the village of Plain City public works department," the mayor said, noting crews worked "around the clock to maintain clear and safe roadways for our dedicated 1st responders and essential personnel."
The mayor said the village will present the recognition the next day and that council’s personnel finance committee proposed giving the public works employees four hours of paid time off "as a little token appreciation." Council members echoed thanks during the reports; one member noted the crews logged extensive overtime and called the effort "well deserved." The mayor also encouraged residents to patronize affected local businesses as part of recovery and community support.
