The Community Affairs Committee of the Bellbrook City Council on Monday, Jan. 13, voted to recommend the appointment of Stephanie Sinku to the Village Review Board and to recommend the reappointment of Jeff Owens and Jacqueline Greenwood to the same board.

The committee first moved into an executive session “to consider the appointment, employment, dismissal and discipline, promotion, demotion, or compensation of a public employee or official,” the committee chair said. Members said no decisions would be made during the executive-session break, and the meeting resumed later in the chambers.

After returning from executive session, a committee member moved to recommend Stephanie Sinku for the Village Review Board; another member seconded the motion. When the committee called the roll on the appointment, Committee member Harding recorded “yes,” and Committee member Havens recorded “yes.” The presiding officer declared the motion carries.

Later in the meeting a member moved to reappoint Jeff Owens and Jacqueline Greenwood to the Village Review Board; another member seconded that motion. On the roll call for that recommendation, Committee member Harding recorded “yes” and Committee member Havens recorded “yes,” and the chair again declared the motion carries.

The committee approved the meeting minutes earlier in the session and adjourned after the reappointment votes.

No further details on the candidates’ backgrounds, the terms of appointment, or any dissenting votes were provided on the record.
