a. Mayor
Mary McDonald said she would like to invite all citizens to attend more city
council meetings so you are aware what the city leadership is doing. She said
the citizens were not aware that council was going to take a vote on the city
manager contact to retire and rehire. Mayor Cameron explained, this topic has
been tabled and taken off the city council agenda as a tabled item. We cannot
get an answer from every citizen on this subject; it must be done through the
seven council representatives. Mrs. Gales was surprised that council was
going to take a vote tonight. The Law Director said, he was instructed to
prepare a contract for adoption based on the same terms from the previous
agreement. The only change in the document is a provision for retire & rehire.
This action is a multi step process under the Ohio Law that must be followed.
The reason its before council tonight is the contract will end if we started after
the expiration date which ends in July.
Rap Hankins, introduce the First Tier Suburbs Best Practices document on
best practices from the other thirteen municipalities. Council can review and if
interested in some of the programs we can discuss at a workshop. Vice Mayor
Staggs attended the Coffee With The Cops there was a nice turn out.

the closest store we have. They have a new store manager and every Saturday

c. Council Members
Mary McDonald said she would like to invite the citizens in the audience to
come to attend more city council meetings to be made aware of what the city
leadership is doing. She said the citizens were not aware that we were going
to take a vote on the city manager contact to retire and rehire. Mayor Cameron
explained, this topic has been tabled and taken off the agenda. We have seven
council people on this council designated and elected in every ward that
citizens can go and talk to. We cannot give an answer to every citizen; it must
be done through the council representative. Mrs. Gales was surprised that
council was going to take a vote tonight. The Law Director explained, he was
instructed to prepare a contract for adoption based on the same terms from in
his previous agreement three years ago. There is only a clause provision for
retire & rehire. This action is a multi step process under the Ohio Law that
must be followed. The reason its before council tonight is the contract will end
soon in July.
Rap Hankins, reported the First Tier Suburbs has a publication called the 'First
Tier Suburbs a Best Practices' document he would like to have city council
review. Some of the topics included over 105 programming ideas from
surrounding communities that council may want to adopt as policy. If
interested council could discuss their ideas at a workshop session.
Vice-Mayor Staggs attended the "Coffee With The Cops" at Friendship Village.
Mary thanked the citizens for joining her at the Siebenthalar Krogers grocery
store. This is the closest grocery we have. They have with the new manager,
every Saturday from 1:00 to 5:00 pm they have live jazz music and are also
working on having gospel choirs at this location. We need to own our
community and own our store. Rap explained, there is a grocery store in the
city of Trotwood known as Foodtown. Mr. Kettelle, thanked the staff for
putting on the East Egg Hunt this weekend over 7,000 eggs with 500 kids
