Summary

Trustees were told the Village’s health insurance policy expires Oct. 31, 2025, with renewal effective Nov. 1; President Dowdy said the Board previously discussed discontinuing coverage and will place salary adjustments for two covered employees on the Oct. 6 agenda.

President Bruce Dowdy told trustees the Village’s current health insurance policy expires Oct. 31, 2025, with any renewal taking effect Nov. 1, 2025. He said it was his understanding from prior discussions that the Village planned to discontinue health insurance at renewal and that, if coverage ends, salaries for the two employees currently enrolled—Chief of Police Travis Peden and employee Billy Brunk—would be revisited; the Board placed those salary changes on the Oct. 6 agenda.

Dowdy also read Police Chief work-week language from the approved Aug. 4 minutes and said that language will replace existing language in the Employee Handbook. Trustees did not take a final vote on insurance at the Sept. 8 meeting; the matter remains scheduled for further consideration in October.
