Approval of Agenda and Minutes
The meeting began with Mayor Barb Knop addressing a minor issue regarding the agenda, specifically a title omission for one of the items. She assured attendees that this was not an attempt to be non-transparent and promised better accuracy in the future. The agenda was then approved unanimously.
Following this, the council held a moment of silence for two community members, Rick Newman and Molly Edison, who had recently passed away. The council then moved on to approve several sets of meeting minutes from previous sessions, with Councilor Lisa Kerr requesting an amendment to the December 12th minutes. The amendment noted that the mayor had offered an applicant the chance to consult a root specialist, which the applicant declined. The minutes were approved with this revision.
