Council members sworn in; president selected

In front of a stand­ing room only crowd, elected offi­cials were sworn in at Monday’s vil­lage coun­cil meetings.

Coun­cil clerk Karen Webb swore in mayor Barb O’Keefe, and coun­cil mem­bers Steve Mau­rer and Helen Drons­field for new terms.

Coun­cil mem­ber Jeff Hyde nom­i­nated coun­cil mem­ber Sandy Denes for coun­cil pres­i­dent. Denes was voted in as pres­i­dent unan­i­mously by the other mem­bers of council.

Denes, who is in the midst of her first term on coun­cil, replaces Mau­rer, the out­go­ing coun­cil president.

Sev­eral coun­cil mem­bers and mem­bers of the com­mu­nity were appointed to serve on var­i­ous boards.

Mor­ris Fur­cron was cho­sen as the zon­ing inspec­tor for the village.

Drons­field was appointed to the com­mu­nity involve­ment cor­po­ra­tion board.

Appointed to the village’s zon­ing board of appeals was Del­bert Mohrman.

Denes was cho­sen to be council’s Main Street rep­re­sen­ta­tive. Guy Wells was cho­sen alternate.

Al Kim­mich was appointed to the design review committee.

Tom Cleary was appointed to the plan­ning com­mis­sion board.

Appointed to the cable com­mis­sion were Drons­field and Patti Young.

Bob Box, Mark Rose­mark, and Steve Pyles were appointed to the safety committee.

At Monday’s meet­ing, police chief Steve Rollins informed every­one that school traf­fic for McCormick Mid­dle School will return to its nor­mal pat­tern begin­ning Monday.

Both Car­pen­ter Street and Dick­son Street will once again be one-way streets. The traf­fic pat­tern was changed due to the con­struc­tion on Court­land Street.

At the pub­lic works com­mit­tee meet­ing, Pyles said the Court­land project is almost com­pleted. He said side­walks and approaches have been poured, but some of the streets still need to be lined.

The next coun­cil meet­ing will be on Wednes­day, Jan. 18, due to the hol­i­day fol­low­ing on the nor­mally sched­uled meet­ing day.
