Note: E-mail service to Bluffton village offices is sporadic, as many residents trying to e-mail village employees discovered last week.
The internet server went down last Wednesday and no e-mail was sent or received by the village until earlier this week.
The village is working with Perry Pro-Tech, its internet provider, to resolve the problem.
Monday’s council session
Bluffton council awarded the West Elm Street water engineering project to Choice One Engineering, Sidney, for – rough estimated - $450,000 on Monday.
Bluffton council had several questions for Jack Huber, village administrator, on Monday night.
The questions concerned the administrator’s handling, or mishandling, of three village projects:
• Absence of financial details in the council packet detailing the next village payroll
• Village Internet server
• West Elm Street waterline project
The conversation became a Village Administrator 101 lecture as Roger Warren, Joe Sehlhorst and Phil Talavinia quizzed the administrator on his handling of the three items.
Bluffton school board will act on two approval requests for overnight trips on Monday.
Action at the September board meeting includes:
• Oct. 11 through 13 outdoor school for 7th graders at Camp Berry, Arlington
• May 21 through 24 trip to Washington, D.C., for 8th graders
In addition, several contacts, pay advances and assignments are on the agenda. Among those is a certified advancement for Kelly Yarnell from BA to 150 hours.
