Council will not pursue town-level credits from Republic Services strike; residents advised to file individually
Clerk/Treasurer Sue Ann Spens reported that some residents received credits from Republic Services for a July work stoppage while others, including resident Bill Knowles, did not. After discussion, the council concluded that the town would not continue efforts to pursue credits from Republic Services and advised individual Villagers to pursue credits on their own.

Councilmembers indicated prior attempts to help with credits have encountered challenges, and the council judged there was little the town could do further at this time. The topic remains available for residents to raise individually with the vendor and through their personal account records.
