Summary of June 12 Bluffton Council meeting

By Andy Chappell-Dick

For the last Council meeting of spring, casual polo shirts were de rigueur around the table, with Solicitor Elliott Werth making a statement in bright pink.  Mayor Rich Johnson spurned the trend in his signature sport coat, and Councilor Joe Sehlhorst was understated in a button-down work shirt.

COMMITTEE REPORTS
Beginning with Committee reports, Councilor Jerry Cupples described some minor changes to insurance coverage, and asked that Council approve the renewals. Councilor Ben Stahl had a long list of activities by the Tree Commission, including a neighborhood-wide overhaul of Riley Creek Village and new designs for the layout of soccer fields next to SRK.
