Rising Sun Town Council welcomes Scout for community badge meeting

The Town of Rising Sun held its regular meeting on January 10, 2023, with a quorum present as Commissioners Braun, Pearson, and Warney attended. The meeting commenced with the Pledge of Allegiance, followed by a moment of silence in recognition of Police Appreciation Day, honoring law enforcement and first responders.

The agenda included a consent agenda, which was approved unanimously without any items being removed for further discussion. Town Administrator reported no public presentations or unfinished business. There was also no new business introduced during the meeting.

A notable moment occurred when Commissioner Warney introduced Mark Grabowski, an assistant scout master with Troop 22 from Elkton, who attended the meeting with his son, Max. Max is working on his Citizenship in the Community merit badge, which requires him to attend a town hall meeting. The commissioners welcomed them and encouraged Max to ask questions after the meeting.

The Town Administrator had no additional reports, but the Police Chief provided a brief overview of last year's statistics, indicating a focus on community safety and engagement.

The meeting concluded without further citizen input or discussions, reflecting a straightforward agenda with community involvement highlighted through the presence of the scout troop.
