December 20, 2021, Mayor's Column
At this time of taking stock and reviewing the year with gratitude and appreciation, there is no better moment to thank the dozens of Village residents who stepped up in 2021 to volunteer on behalf of their government.
Without those dedicated citizens mentioned, the Trustees and I could not run the government with efficiency – plans reviewed and approved, new initiatives put forward and projects imagined. Their efforts resulted in literally thousands of donated hours of time, expertise and professionalism.
This list is not only a thank you on behalf of the entire Village Hall team but also names of your neighbors on committees that may help you with various questions or needed advice on their areas of expertise.

If we inadvertently forgot anyone, I apologize in advance and will mention as a deserved addendum next week.
