The Wauseon City Council held their meeting on Monday, January 17th. The meeting was called to order at 5:00 p.m. followed by the Pledge of Allegiance and a moment of silence.
Council first moved to call for a public hearing regarding the Seneca Drive Tax Incentive Ordinance.
The floor was opened to anyone in attendance who may have questions, with Matt Gilroy present to help give answers. With no one present to speak during the public hearing, council moved to adjourn the public hearing.
The minutes for the previous council meeting that took place on January 4th were then approved, followed by the Committee of the Whole meeting that took place on January 13th. With no one present to address council for any other issues unrelated to the public hearing, council moved on to ordinances.

A 5-year term for Chris Gleckler to serve on the Zoning Board of Appeals, a 5-year term for Scott Stiriz and Harold Stickley to serve on the Park Board, and a 3-year term for Scott Stiriz to serve on the Tree Commission.
