The Onsted Village Council voted unanimously on July 13, 2026, to approve a one-year contract with J&D Operations to operate the village wastewater treatment plant.
The motion to approve the contract was made by Councilmember Shannon Kropp and supported by Libby Chase. The minutes record a roll-call vote with Ayes: Chase, Jeffords, Kropp, Muth, Robotham, Slick and Village President Robert Schafer. Jeff Escott, listed in the meeting attendance as representing J&D Operations, was present; the minutes do not include the contract amount, service terms, or an effective date beyond the approval.
The one-year agreement replaces or continues the village’s operational arrangement for the wastewater treatment plant; the minutes list the vote and the motion but do not provide contract specifics or funding source information. The council recorded the contract approval as a formal motion with a roll-call vote. Any further operational or budgetary details will be recorded in subsequent meeting packets if submitted.
