Jan. 12 meeting
KEY ACTION Held the first reading of a resolution of a draft for a proposed fire contract between the village, Bolivar Fire Department and the Lawrence Township Trustees.
Discussion: Mayor Scott Gordon said the Village Solicitor Doug Frautschy has reviewed and updated the original resolution that council passed and has been in contact with the township attorney about the matter.
The village currently does not have a fire contract with the Zoar Fire Department. The village has a contract for Emergency Medical Service with Bolivar EMS.
In another matter, council discussed the de-annexation of a portion of the Dover-Zoar Road on top of the Zoar levee. Council member David Irwin said the county would maintain the area. Legal Counsel will be consulted. Village Solicitor Doug Frautschy said according to the county map, the area is owned by the United States of America.
