Public Hearing Scheduled for 2027 Community Development Supplemental Grant
A public hearing will be held on Thursday, July 9th, at 6:45 p.m. before the Planning Commission regarding the upcoming 2027 Community Development Supplemental Grant. The city received notification of the grant with less notice than previous years, necessitating a prompt scheduling of the meeting to meet publication requirements for the notice. Residents are encouraged to attend to voice their community development needs.
Council Approves Collective Bargaining Agreements for Police Patrolmen and Sergeants
The Finance Committee discussed and recommended approval of two ordinances authorizing collective bargaining agreements: one for patrolmen and one for sergeants with the Ohio Patrolman's Benevolent Association (OPBA) for the Brexville Police Department. Mayor Kingston emphasized that the negotiated rates for bargaining units would also be extended to non-bargaining full-time employees, necessitating the payroll ordinance previously discussed. New language was introduced in the agreements to provide future clarity on the '27th pay' issue, which occurs every 11 years. Council members asked questions regarding the hourly versus salaried status of employees and the implications of the '27th pay'. The ordinances were approved by the committee and subsequently by City Council.
Council Approves Payroll Ordinance Adjusting Employee Compensation and Pay Ranges
The Finance Committee discussed and recommended approval of a payroll ordinance, Ordinance 5873, which amends payroll ordinance 5839 concerning employee compensation. This ordinance is related to finalizing agreements for compensation throughout the city and adjusting maximum amounts in certain categories due to a 3.5% increase. The ordinance aims to adjust pay ranges to align with recommended salary changes, ensuring parity with unionized employees and accommodating non-union employees. Council members raised questions about the ordinance's scope, whether it covered future raises, and its impact on the budget. The ordinance was passed by City Council.
Council to Consider $10,000 Grant for Community Awareness and Prevention Services
The Safety and Services Committee approved recommending to council the approval of a resolution authorizing the mayor to provide a grant of $10,000 to the Brexit-Breview Heights Community Awareness and Prevention Association (CAPPA) for Prevention and Intervention Services. This item was approved by the committee and then moved to council for final approval.
