Village residents John and Karina Sharboneau were welcomed. Committee reports were given. Another work bee is scheduled for Thursday evening to sort the remaining bottles and cans. Signs have been placed at the Wee People park. We’ve had issues with older children moving and attempting to damage toys that are intended for children six and under.

The planning commission met and is continuing to work on redoing zoning ordinances. Surveys are still being taken for the recreation plan in conjunction with the RRC. Durham gave the zoning report. He will be sending out several letters tomorrow for violations.

Nate Walker gave the fire report. There were 16 medical and two fire calls this past month. The new equipment for the FD has been delivered. There are many items including cutters, spreaders, saws, lights, drills, a windshield kit and batteries and chargers. There are also rescue struts, auto cribbing and brackets to complete the package that was approved for purchase at the May meeting.

Brody Potts and Michael Basner graduated from fire academy in May. Nate stated that we have 20 firefighters on our roster and 18 are active currently. Eight are MFR certified and nine are FD certified. New radios are needed and he is working on applying for a grant for new ones.

Mike Basner gave the maintenance report. Benches have been placed through town, docks have been put in at the beach and boat launch. C&C is working on several paving projects. The road into the park is being prepped to be paved along with the parking lot. Mike would like to purchase some lids for the garbage containers and some small hand tools to use at the maintenance garage. Money is available to purchase those items in the EQR budget.

Durham gave the sewer report. The daily numbers have been great so far. The traffic counters are back in the village and gathering data. It is hoped that a report can be available by our August meeting.

In old business, the DDA approved the purchase of the old Our Place property, pending the award of grant dollars from the State Land Bank. The VA building will begin to be billed for the sewer charges for the new building.

A motion was made by Wambold, with support from Durham, to contract with Harrisville and Barton City to provide funds for each entity for Fourth of July fireworks. The nature conservancy contacted president Phillips regarding funds that are available towards working on our zoning ordinances. She will be meeting with someone on Monday, June 16 to discuss the details.

We want to give a big thank you to graduating seniors who provided community service to various projects recently. Avery Glore did a fantastic job of cleaning and raking Barlow Road Park. Jasmine Walker and someone else did a great job washing the village fire trucks. Thank you all!

Marsha presented the new banners that were bought for the downtown region with the DDA beautification funds. There are eight for each season and eventually we hope to have enough to hang on all the poles along 2nd and Traverse Bay streets. A motion to adjourn was made by Potts with support from Wambold. Carried.
