Concord Township Trustees tentatively approved the purchase of a new dump truck from Western Star in Wapakoneta. Final approval will be at the April 19 trustees meeting. The dump truck will cost the township $123,681 with a $12,000 trade-in for the township’s 1999 International dump truck.

In the road report, Trustee Don Pence reported that the township has already received a complaint from a resident concerning noxious weeds. According to the property owner, a property on 25A was neglected last year and the owner expressed concern that the same problem will occur this year. Trustee Bill Whidden agreed to handle noxious weed complaints for 2016 and will investigate the complaint and address the issue before it becomes problem for the homeowner.

In old business, Pence reported that he had heard from Assistant Prosecutor Chris Englert concerning the junk car resolution. The final draft of the resolution will be ready for approval at the April 19 meeting.

The next meeting of the Concord Township trustees is scheduled for April 19, 2016 at 10:00 a.m. in the township building.
