Richland council approves Resolution 26-01 adjusting GLWSA rates in 3-2 roll call vote

The Village of Richland Council approved Resolution 26-01, a motion described as a GLWSA rate adjustment, during its regular meeting on March 9, 2026.

Trustee Kim Lewis moved to adopt the resolution and Trustee Paul Foust seconded. President Pro-Temp Gail Koporetz and Trustees Paul Foust and Kim Lewis voted yes; Trustees Jason Mechenbier and Rob Riddle voted no. The motion carried by roll call vote; the transcript does not specify the adjusted rate amount or effective date.

The same agenda item included a separate motion, also approved, directing village staff to post upcoming public events hosted by renters (for example, GLAMA) on the Village of Richland website.

Clerk Mollie Fish recorded the action in the meeting minutes. The council did not provide additional details during the meeting on the magnitude of the GLWSA change, its effective date, or any plan for public notice beyond the website posting requirement.
