Regular Meeting (Resolution 1 of 2024)

The Village Council of the Village of Empire convened a special meeting on January 23, 2024, to address and amend Resolution No. 11 of 2023, which had previously accepted the dedication of certain streets within Phase 4 of the New Neighborhood Plat. The amendment, termed Resolution __ of 2024, was necessitated by changes identified in the Dedication and Hold Harmless Agreement post-adoption of the original resolution. The primary amendment involved extending Ontario Street to M22 instead of Alley 6, as initially planned.

The revised text of Resolution No. 11 of 2023 specifically outlines the dedication of several roads and alleys to the public within the New Neighborhood. These include Alley 5 south of Michigan Street, Alley 6, Ontario Street from South Street to M22, and Pokagon Street from Alley 6 to South Street. This amendment ensures that the updated dedication reflects the accurate layout and connectivity of the streets as per the revised agreement.

The resolution was officially adopted with a vote, and the Village President declared its passage. The amendment retains all other provisions of the original Resolution No. 11 of 2023, ensuring continuity and adherence to the broader framework established for the development of the New Neighborhood. The official documentation of this amendment was certified by the Village Clerk, Derith Smith, confirming its legality and inclusion in the village’s records.
