Chesaning council vacates Lockwood Street strip, OKs $206,501 in bills
The village council's June 16 meeting lasted 11 minutes and cleared a street vacation that the synopsis minutes say may have been left undone earlier because of a clerical error.
The Chesaning Village Council voted June 16 to vacate a portion of Lockwood Street and approved $206,501.72 in accounts payable, according to the synopsis minutes posted by the village.
The minutes record that Trustee Chludil moved to vacate the property and Trustee Larner supported the motion. The motion carried. The synopsis does not list individual votes or a numerical margin.
The item appeared under "Items for Introduction" as Resolution 05-2026. The minutes state the vacation "was thought to have been done previously but was not completed, possibly a clerical error." No further detail on the location or size of the vacated portion is included in the synopsis.
Council members Navarre, Larner, Danek, Bueche, Hoover and Chludil were present, the minutes say. Member Wenzel was absent.
The consent agenda, approved as part of the meeting, included minutes from the June 2, 2026, meeting and the June 16 accounts payable total of $206,501.72. The minutes list no public statements and no items under "Items for Action."
The meeting was called to order at 7:30 p.m. and adjourned at 7:41 p.m. The synopsis was submitted by Village Clerk Tina Powell and approved by Village Administrator Tom Ebenhoeh.
