Trustee Lovekamp would like to see a communication committee. The newsletter is a good source of information and maybe put an ordinance in the newsletter each month. This can be discussed at the July 21st meeting.

Fire Chief Randy West stated their attorney is drafting a letter for the building across the road. Also, he has a FEMA document from the state. The Village has no emergency plan in place and as a result, in case of a catastrophe, the Village could loose out on Federal funding. The Village could adopt the state plan and simply need a document stating so. This will be on the July 21 agenda.
