Three new resolutions also unanimously passed at Monday's meeting, including:

  • Reappointing Erik Edwards to the Community Reinvestment Area Housing Council

  • Appointing Fort Loramie Mayor Randy Ahlers as the municipal representative to the Shelby County 911 Program Review Committee

  • At the meeting, Sidney Fire Chief Chad Hollinger discussed township contract renewals related to services provided by Sideny to Clinton, Orange and Franklin Townships.

    Current contracts originated in the 1970s and are recommended to increase by 7 percent each year to cover actual costs. Hollinger says data shows an increase in costs over the last five years.
