He said the Village is in fairly good shape and is staying within its budget. They’re also able to cover their debt. Armstrong said the Board might want to look into raising utility rates.

There are twelve properties in Enfield that need to be cleaned up. They will send out letters to the owners shortly.

There have been some complaints from residents about grain being spilled at the grain elevator causing a smell and of trains loudly blowing their whistles at about 3 a.m. they will look into both matters.
