New Carlisle City Council conducted their business in near-record time on Monday evening.  Vice Mayor Lowell McGlothin reminded Council that Bicentennial Calendars are now available for $6.00.  There is also a good supply of Sesquicentennial books, and both are priced at only $10.00.  Council Member Terri Hoffman added that Bicentennial T-shirts, coffee mugs and patches are also available.  Bicentennial merchandise is available at many locations throughout town, and all proceeds help put on the year-long Bicentennial celebration in 2010.

 

 Interim City Manager Kim Jones announced that she sent out two thank-you letters.  One went to Mr. and Mrs. Rick Lowrey for their donation of a table saw to the street/cemetery departments.  The other went to American Legion Post 286 for their donation of funds to purchase body armor for one of the City’s deputies. Jones also suggested that the City hold its annual town meeting at the beginning of the year, rather than in October of each year.  Her reasoning was that the year-end review cannot be complete in October since the year has not yet ended.  She suggested that it be moved to the first meeting in February.  Council made it so.  The next town hall meeting will be February 1, 2010 at the Smith Park Shelterhouse at 6:30 PM. Council member John Krabacher asked Jones about the Tecumseh flags that have been placed on the flagpoles in town.  She said that Tecumseh personnel had put up the flags in recognition of the Arrows’ first playoff game. Council heard first readings of six ordinances:
  • Ordinance 09-57 amends the City Employee Handbook regarding the use of city-owned vehicles.
  • Ordinance 09-58 adopts a City policy regarding use of City credit cards.
  • Ordinance 09-59 adopts regulations regarding flood plains.
  • Ordinance 09-60 authorizes the City Manager to lease land from the Tecumseh School District.
  • Ordinance 09-61 authorizes the subleasing of property to the New Carlisle Cubs
  • Ordinance 09-62 accepts an offer to purchase the old water plant on North Main St.
 Action on all of these ordinances will be on November 16.  Full text of the ordinances is available at the City offices. Council also passed Ordinance 09-63E, authorizing the City Manager to enter into an agreement with Nextel to supply cell phones to conduct City business. City offices will be closed on Veterans Day, Nov. 11.  The next Bicentennial Committee meeting is Nov. 10 at 6:30 p.m. at the New Carlisle Public Library.  The next Heritage of Flight Committee meeting is Nov. 7 at 9 a.m. at the New Carlisle Fire Station. You can hear an audio recording of City Council meetings at http://www.newcarlisleohio.net/audio
