BELLAIRE, Ohio – At Thursday night’s Village of Bellaire council meeting, Mayor Edward Marling announced that he had interviewed a man for the village administrator position and would invite that person back for a second interview. He did not name the person.

Council also heard a presentation from Larry Taylor, Energy/Aggregation Specialist for Trebel Energy, concerning a measure on the Nov. 5 ballot on gas aggregation for Pultney Township where Bellaire is located. Taylor said gas aggregation could save villagers money as it had with electric aggregation. Taylor proposed a meeting for village residents to explain the aggregation process and how it could potentially be beneficial. Council members will determine a date and location for the meeting.

Police Chief J.J. Watson announced that Patrolman Connor Probst submitted a resignation letter and would be taking a job in Shadyside. Watson said Probst resigned due to pay and issues interacting with other people.

Council considered an emergency resolution concerning police salaries.

Council discussed other personnel changes in the village and Councilwoman Janet Robinson suggested making job descriptions for village positions.

Councilwoman Elizabeth Dugmore emphasized that the village has a dog waste ordinance and urged pet owners to pick up after their dogs. Watson agreed to enforce the ordinance.

Village of Bellaire council meets the first and third Thursday of each month at 6 p.m.
