The following text is a report made by Mayor Dave Retterer to the Ada Village Council on Tuesday, January 18, minus comments made to those in attendance including Fiscal Officer Patty Navin, Police Chief Michael Harnishfeger, (remotely) Village Administrator Jamie Hall and Legal Council Jane Napier. Also in remote attendance were the Ada Herald and Kenton Times.
COUNCIL
Routine issues in the Village continue to be handled well. Ada is fortunate to have had active, deliberative, engaged, intelligent and dedicated councilors for many years and that has much to do with the current state of the village. This allows Ada to be prepared for future needs, opportunities and emergencies.
FISCAL STATUS
A successful reorganization of the accounting system in 2020 led to additional progress in 2021. Council has planned and budgeted to acquire one software package that will support utility billing, payroll, payables and receivables as well as other related activities. Currently there are at least two software packages to accomplish this and they don’t communicate with each other.
The January 13 Ada Board of Education meeting included the 161st annual reorganization meeting and a regular meeting with reports from the high school and elementary school principals, as well as the treasurer and superintendent.
The Board of Education of the Ada Exempted Village Schools has announced a reorganization meeting and regular meeting for 6:00 p.m., on Thursday, January 13, 2022.
Board Members are:
Matt Gossman, President Pro Tem
Amy Mullins
Ronald Fleming
