Reports of Village Officials
\nThere were no reports for village officials. <\/p>\n
Remarks from Guests
\nVillage resident Al Morthland asked if it\u2019s necessary to live in town to have a liquor license. Mayor Hill replied not if you\u2019re a corporation. Morthland was asking about the Old Town Pub-N-Grub closing. Mayor Hill said they aren\u2019t technically closed. It was being managed by the Lances, but they\u2019re stepping back so Julie Stees will manage it again, as well as own it. <\/p>\n
Unfinished Business
\nThe council learned that there are no new updates regarding the Water Main Replacement Project. Mayor Hill mentioned seeing bench marks and survey tags around town, so some progress is being made. <\/p>\n
New Business
\nMayor Hill turned the discussion to review and discuss the 2017 Project Plans. She told the council when filling out the budgets, fill out what you want to be seen done in their departments. That way we can see if it\u2019s feasible, and also get it scheduled and planned.<\/p>\n
Mayor Hill then turned the discussion to the Budget Worksheets. Mayor Hill asked the council to be mindful of what projects are wanted to be put in, and the cost of living improvements and percentages. When planning a government budget, we must plan ahead and anticipate the worst, or we could lose funds and get behind when it comes to justifying a tax levy or something similar. If any help is needed, get a hold of Clerk Leathers or Mayor Hill. <\/p>\n
There were no building permits to approve at this time. <\/p>\n
Communications
\nThere were no communications to discuss at this time. <\/p>\n
Bills were ordered paid on a motion by Commissioner Maupin and seconded by Commissioner Vancil. \u201cYes\u201d votes were Maupin, Hill, Meier, Vancil and Mayor Hill.
\nThe motion carried. <\/p>\n
Commissioner Maupin wanted to inform the council that he and Clerk Leathers are in the process of working on the health insurance for the village employees. Once it\u2019s figured out, it will be submitted to the meeting. <\/p>\n
The meeting adjourned at 7:06 PM. The next regular meeting of the Tampico Village Council will be Tuesday, January 17, 2017 at 7:00 PM in the Reagan Community Center located at 202 W. Second Street. <\/p>\n
