Residents urge council to address water testing, school-board appointment and vacant seats on boards
Summary
During two Statement of Citizens periods, residents Jeff Hines and Gerald Wellman raised concerns about city water, a Greenville Public School Board appointment, a broken downtown window, overgrown lawns, and empty seats on city boards and commissions.
Two residents used the Statement of Citizens period at the July 21 Greenville City Council meeting to raise local concerns. Jeff Hines (109 N. Bower Street) spoke about city water issues, an impending Greenville Public School Board appointment and that he is running as an independent candidate for County Commissioner. Gerald Wellman (206 N. Bower Street) raised issues including a broken downtown business window, a neighbor receiving a notice about an overgrown lawn, and later spoke about vacant seats on city boards and commissions.
The transcript records the citizens' topics but does not include extended discussion or staff responses on those items during the meeting. Several of the concerns (board vacancies; water testing) may require follow-up with city staff or placement on a future agenda for staff response and possible council action.
