The regular Ada Council meeting of July 19 was held to conduct village business including the approval of minutes of the prior meeting and payment of bills.
Councilor Linda Mason was absent—and excused by the council. The next meeting will be rescheduled for August 9 because Mason and councilor Sheila Coressel will be working the polls on August 2. Add another expected absence and the original date would not have had the necessary number to conduct the meeting.
