The Nashville City Council met last night and they heard about the 9^th Annual Pancreatic Dog Walk on June 7^th at Memorial Park and in town.  The Council approved assisting the Jeanenne Thompson Foundation with possibly closing streets and providing police assistance.  The walk will go from the park, up to Elm Street, then over to Trinity Lutheran, north a couple of blocks and then back to the park on Maple Street.  The Council addressed the roadwork for Route 127.  This project will be resurfacing from just south of Little Nashville going south to Holzhauer Drive by the high school.  This will include the parking lanes in town, from the railroad tracks to the lighted 4-way intersection.  This project will also include the installation of traffic lights at Mockingbird Road, as well as any work needed on roads at intersections with Route 127.    The Council approved the agreement with the Illinois Department of Transportation, approved $37,003 for the city’s part of the project, approved the plans, as well as an ordinance on the regulation of the right of ways.  Streets Committeman Terry Kozuszek explains what this is, saying this pertains to anything in thing in the parking lanes restricting the work, such as vehicles or signs. The ordinance will allow the city to issue fines if needed.  These fines will range from $250 to $500.  Another ordinance prohibiting the construction crews from discharging sanitary sewage or industrial wastewater was also approved.  This will be enforced by the city.  Plans are being put together for a new shed for the city maintenance crews.  Councilman Keith Reckmann told the Council about an increase in the premiums of 5 insurance coverage plans through Baldwin House, which are commercial, liability insurance, employee practice liability, commercial auto and inland marine and workman’s comprehension.  There were some trucks purchased and an increase in payroll to cause some of the increase.  The increase will be approximately $7,400, which is 4.3 percent.  They will be receiving a workman compensation grant in the amount of $7,736 for safety meetings that Street Department Supervisor Richard Schuette conducts to keep claims down.  These policy renewals were approved.  City Clerk Joyce Sheridan brought up the need to update the Municipal Code Book, which hasn’t been done since 2008.  She is discussing pricing estimates with American Publishing Company.  The company that did the last update is no longer in business.  They use 17 to 18 books in the city offices and councilmembers, but the new books could look different and be digital, as well as having an option to be online.  The purpose of updating the book is to review ordinances that might need to be changed to comply with Federal regulations and ordinances.  Also, there might be rewording needed or duplicate ordinances.  They will pursue this project at a future meeting before seeking bids.
