Kingsford Heights Town Council November 9, 2026

The Kingsford Heights Town Council meeting on November 9, 2026, included a unanimous vote to purchase a Digger Derrick truck for $25,000, after utility staff said the existing 1989 truck was unsafe for work near power lines. The new truck was being held at Plymouth REMC, according to the discussion. The council agreed to allocate its cost 75% to electric operations and 12.5% each to water and sewer. The council also approved a payroll claims docket totaling $70,514.22 and the fourth-quarter utility tracker factor. A separate claims docket was not approved because its list did not match the supporting claims and appeared to duplicate items approved previously; resolving the discrepancy was an action item.

The council approved Robbie’s appointment as utility supervisor. Members discussed matching his pay to Jason’s, but the transcript does not clearly capture the final vote or effective pay amount. The council also discussed setting building-inspector compensation at 35% of building permit revenue and recruiting applicants; staff will check State Board of Accounts guidance before proceeding. Utility shutoff notices and assistance requirements were discussed without a recorded policy decision. No other new contract award was identified.
