Summary

Following the appointment of Jennifer Basarich, the St. Jacob Board approved adding her to the village bank signature cards so she can sign checks; the motion passed unanimously by roll-call vote.

After the board approved Jennifer Basarich's appointment as village clerk on July 6, Mayor Richard Schiefer asked trustees to add her to the village's bank signature cards "so she can officially sign checks for the Village." Trustee Nick Timmons moved to approve the change; Trustee Brandon Ponce seconded and the board approved the requested change by roll-call vote with 'all in favor.'

The addition to the signature cards formalizes the clerk's authority to sign checks and handle routine financial paperwork as part of clerk duties. The transcript records the board's unanimous approval but does not list a per-member roll-call tally in the minutes.
