On the record – Johnston

WHAT: Township trustees organizational meeting Jan. 7

PRESENT: Davis Denman, James Carnes and Dominic Marchese

Trustees:

• Named Denman chairman and Carnes vice chairman;

• Heard from Denman that a court case will be heard Feb. 5 in Central District Court for Richard Tomczyk on criminal damage charges in connection to cemetery vandalism. Officials said they spoke to the Trumbull County Sheriff’s Office and the Trumbull County Prosecutor’s Office after a security camera caught a man using weed spray on gravesites. Denman said the incident has happened on more than one occasion. Family members of relatives buried at the cemetery have told trustees it is frustrating to see the grass damaged and gone by their markers as the spray has gotten on other nearby grave plants and shrubbery;

• Set meetings for 6 p.m. second Monday of the month at the Veterans of Foreign Wars Hall.
