In recent months the village board has taken on a number of important issues.

The entire village board has agreed to change the law.

There is also a village board of 8 members elected for 4-year terms.

The measure was approved by the village board in 1981.

"The matter has been settled by a higher authority than the village board," he said.

He noted that the village board had not discussed any of those questions.

The village zoning board turned it down late in 2001.

A land use committee established by the village board two years ago plans to hold three public sessions in the fall.

Yet last year, the village board adopted a plan people hate.

This plan was approved by the village board on July 2, 1962.
