Trustees Mateja and Novak raised concerns during review of Resolution R25-03-01, an agreement with Dam, Snell & Taveirne, Ltd. to provide auditing services, questioning contract language that referenced a 5% minimum increase rather than a 5% maximum. The trustees said the phrasing could obligate the village to annual increases; the minutes record the trustees requesting clarification.

Mayor Rodney Buckley said he would follow up with the firm and report back to the board. "Mayor Buckley will follow up on this," the minutes state. No formal motion or vote on the auditing contract appears in the March 3 minutes.
