1. Call to Order
Mayor Lloyd Hilgart called the special meeting to order at 5 p.m.
2. Discussion on Proposed COVID-19 Vaccination Policy
Rachel Leonard provided an overview of the federal OSHA Emergency Temporary
Standard (ETS) components. She provided information on what the motions would entail
for adoption at the following regular meeting. Ms. Leonard noted that she favored
adopting the policy because not adopting a policy would put the City at risk of being
fined by OSHA, a payment that would be made with taxpayers' money.
The masking of employees was implemented January 10, 2022 in preparation of the
mandate. The testing of unvaccinated employees would begin in early February and the
City would be responsible for the cost of the tests.
Ms. Leonard also relayed a request from CentraCare that would require all people to
mask indoors and to limit indoor gatherings. This will also be addressed at the regular
meeting.
There were some members of the public who did not provide name or address that
expressed that the ETS mandate was unconstitutional.
3. Adjournment
By consensus, the meeting was adjourned at 6:28 p.m.
