The North Judson Town Council is looking to make some changes to the way it operates. Most significantly, members are considering the addition of a council vice-president, according to Clerk-Treasurer Alicia Collins. She says that currently, if the council president is absent, one member is chosen to take charge just for that one meeting.

The changes to the official bylaws were proposed by council member Jane Ellen Felchuk. Collins says council members plan to act on the proposed changes at their next regular meeting.

Meanwhile, the North Judson Town Council is getting to work on the town’s 2018 budget. Members will meet in special session on Tuesday, September 5 to discuss the budget with representatives from accounting firm Umbaugh and Associates. That will be followed by the council’s regular meeting at 6:30 p.m.

Collins says that no comments or questions were offered during a public hearing Monday on the town’s proposed water and sewer upgrades. The hearing was a required step before the town can seek financial help from the state and federal government.
