Thomas Welch, representing Twin Township trustees, wants some things changed on the fire and EMS contracts. Mayor Suggs told Mr. Welch that the paragraph about termination without notification for late payment dates back to 1989. Twin Township would like to see the paragraph about "30 days written notice for termination by either party" to be changed to 90 days. David Mays asked if that had been a problem in the past. Mr. Welch said no. The township wants to keep monthly payments.

Carol Lunsford arrived at 7:15 P.M.

Richard Faber suggested keeping the contracts the same this year, since it is so late, and discuss changing the contracts next year.  Mr. Welch asked about the fire contract which said Lanier instead of Twin in one place. The clerk replied that it was a typographical error and that it had been corrected.  David Mays said that Council would keep the contracts as is this year, since Lanier has already signed their contracts. The village would discuss making changes on the EMS contract with Twin next year.  Mr. Welch stated that Twin's next meeting is December 30th. They might have a special meeting to sign the contracts.
