Welcome to the Whitehall City Council Committee meetings. Uh agenda for Wednesday, June 24th, 2022. June 24th, 2026. There are, well, it says no draft pieces of legislation on the agenda, but we do have four pieces of uh draft legislation that came to us after the uh deadline, so I'm going to just run down these. First is ordinance 62, 2026, authorizing approving assumption appropriation, the amount of $5,308.24 cents from unappropriate monies and then general fund 101 to the repair equipment expense account 101.970.56,800 and declaring an emergency. This was requested by uh Chris Peterson, our deputy auditor. Um Ms. Rollins, or do you have anything to which one is it? Okay. Um just says that uh receive insurance reimbursement funds. The 970 count, something for the fire department. So they've got something going on there. So um and Ms. they want this on first reading. So um we will need, and I because uh the the some of the folks are not here to discuss these pieces of legislation. I would encourage everybody on council to please have a conversation with the requester uh prior to next. Well, I'm sorry, not next week, but the week after uh meeting, uh the July 7th on this. But this will need somebody to introduce and submit to second. So Morrison, Mr. Morrison's gonna introduce I'll second. Um second here. So the repair of equipment represent insurance reimbursement funds received for equipment repair. So we're just reimbursing someone because we got paid insurance funding. Essentially, what happened is uh obviously a fire vehicle was damaged, an insurance claim was filed. We received those insurance funds, and then they have to go back into the account. Okay. So it's it's basically a housekeeping situation. So thank you, Ms. Rowland. So next we have resolution 27 2026 authorizing the mayor to apply for accept an entry into a grant acceptance agreement on behalf of the city of White Ohio for Public Entities Pool of Ohio PEP grant. Um this was requested by the chief of or the deputy chief of police. Um city seeks authorization and support from the council of Whitehall to accept funding through the public entities pool of Ohio, and uh the importance of supporting risk management efforts to law enforcement, and this is a grant, so it's uh a gift and a thousand dollars to be used towards uh driver training. So this will need somebody that is Mr. Morrison.
