June 10th, 2021

Not a whole lot to go over, but apparently there will be some higher rates for sewers in the township over the next few years? There was some discussion about adoption of different rates but the settled upon one was a slight hike in prices now with slight increases each year for the next few years.
Flag day is Monday, Post is holding some sort of ceremony for it on the corner of... Hmm, I didn't get the street names but I'll edit that in soon.
Still a lot of thefts, break ins, etc. Please remember to lock your doors, park in well lit areas if you're parking on the road.
Some discussions regarding the Garage Sale ordinance drafted last month. Only eligible days for holding sales will be Thursday thru Sunday... there have been complaints about some people holding month-long garage sales and leaving clutter everywhere... c'mon man, get it together.

sept 9th, 2021 Tonight's board meeting was quite the doozy, here is a rough summary of what was discussed that might apply to those interested. -Public comments regarding noise being made by construction on certain roads, as well as Zaharion automotive having an excess of cars on their lot that have just been sitting there? Both issues are being addressed. -Deb proposed a wage study to make sure our public servants are being paid appropriately in the event that some ppl are making more (or less) than their position would reckon. Tracy, Rachelle, Dick Brown and Jim Mead were all against it, citing a misuse of taxpayers dollars, but it doesn't use taxpayer money and instead is money awarded by the state to be used freely. -Sewer rates are going up because the state wants to make greater strides towards being ecofriendly. -This was the final zoom meeting, all meetings from now on will be in person (though there was a suggestion to do them via facebook live?) -Summer ta...

 September 8th 2022 Another meeting dragged out due to elected members failing to understand the cost of things or how townships operate. We enter the scene with Dick Brown complaining about the cost of construction on the front of the office, the removal of the awnings and how he, or the other trustees, had no say in the voting/approval of the process (as the cost was under $5k, which is the threshold for it being an action item on the monthly agenda). I don't believe Dick has any knowledge or understanding in regards to construction or the pricing thereof, but a lot of these items are simply things that can't or shouldn't wait for a once a month board meeting to be voted on (by individuals with no background knowledge regarding these subjects) before they can start working on them. There was also the complaint regarding the $195/mo ad spending paid for by the supervisor out of her budget, which is being done on a monthly trial basis and will end within the next few months...
