Hamilton council meeting

I wasn't able to get over to the Hamilton Council meeting, but you can see the stories here from Mike Davis and Chrysti Neuman:

Hamilton residents upset about trees, artwork

HAMILTON — Council members and the public weighed in on a variety of topics at last night’s council meeting.

Consent agenda items included establishing a contract to purchase a land grader for a maximum amount of $51,360 and another one-year contract to purchase 20 police uniforms.

Hamilton council moves to make competitive bids a requirement

Pressured by a watchdog group that wants to see honesty and transparency in the way the township does its business, council moved last night to create an ordinance that would require them to obtain competitive bids and quotes from all potential outside vendors. State law already requires competitive bids for many public contracts above a $17,500 threshold, but competitive quotes are only recommended for lesser amounts.
