Police report, speed study and chicken‑keeping rules to return to board in November

Village President Robert McLimans presented Chief Small’s police report during the Oct. 6 meeting while Chief Small attended K‑9 training. The report noted one citation from recent junk cleanup, three fraud reports in September (unauthorized bank transactions, altered checks and an attempted phone scam), and a Mill Street speed study currently logging speeds in both directions using a temporary speed trailer; data from that study will be presented at the November board meeting. Chief Small also requested the board provide citizens the phone number “563-341-7699” instead of his personal number when sharing contact information.
