Council reports hires and retirements; tornado siren restored at Richfield Woods
Summary
Minutes record council acceptance of a fire-department resignation, the hiring of two full-time medics and the retirement of an assistant police chief; the mayor also reported that the Tornado siren at Richfield Woods is back in service with weekly testing.
The board's minutes include several council-level personnel updates reported during the meeting: the council accepted the resignation of Mark Willis from the Fire Department and approved the hiring of Cody Weisbarth and Nathaniel Dloniak as full-time medics effective June 1, 2026. The council also recognized the retirement of Assistant Police Chief Paul Fister.
The Mayor reported an operational public-safety update: "The Tornado siren is back up and running at Richfield Woods. Weekly testing will continue on Tuesdays at noon." The director noted continuing coordination with safety forces for outreach and programming; separate public-safety follow-up is to be handled by the mayor's office and council as needed.
No formal personnel vote tallies were recorded in the parks-board minutes; the items appear under the Mayor's Park and Recreation Report as council actions that the board recorded for awareness.
