Correspondence and Council Comments  
Dr. Goetz provided a Cemetery Board update and said the group with try to do the tour of the Old Township  
Burial Ground in the spring.  
Mr. Banweg thanked the community for supporting the Landsberg student exchange program, thanked staff for  
the Fire/EMS Open House, and stated that the Military and Veterans' Commission is finalizing the Veterans'  
Day ceremony for November 11th at 11:00 a.m. at the Boy Scout Cabin.  
Mrs. Kowalski reminded residents about the HCTV open house on October 17th at Hudson High School, Door  
M.  
Mr. Sutton thanked safety forces for the open house and Ace Hardware for the fire extinguisher exchange . He  
also stated that the Fiber to the Home subcommittee reviewed the survey results and staff will create financial  
models to see what an expansion would look like.  
Dr. Bird also thanked staff for the safety services open house and recognized Kevin Nelson who got kids excited  
about fire safety.  
Mr. Foster provided a Planning Commission update, stating that Ordinance Nos. 24-104 and 24-105 would be  
coming back to Council, with a request from several Planning Commission members to not be sent anymore  
Land Development Code changes until a full review of the Land Development Code could be performed .  
Mr. Foster then summarized the timeline of events that led Council to censure Mrs. Kowalski on December 6,  
2022. He stated that following the 2022 censure, Mrs. Kowalski forwarded privileged documents to Mr. Don  
Reed, which he said was improper and illegal. He further provided explanation for why this action was  
improper and illegal, citing a verified email from Don Reed and a court order holding that a portion of the  
records that had been forwarded to Mr. Reed were covered by the attorney-client privilege. He then made a  
motion to censure Mrs. Kowalski, invoking the Council's legislative authority to express its opinion that Mrs.  
Kowalski had acted improperly and should be verbally rebuked. Mr. Banweg seconded the motion and  
requested a recess.  
Dr. Goetz called for a point of order, asking whether Council Comments was an appropriate place for this type  
of motion. Mr. Pitchford responded affirmatively and stated it could be done in other places on the agenda as  
well.  
Mayor Anzevino recessed the regular meeting at 8:20 p.m. to allow Councilmembers to review the documents  
provided by Mr. Foster. Mayor Anzevino resumed the regular meeting at 8:36 p.m.  
Dr. Goetz called for a point of order, stating that the censure was in violation of the Ohio Open Meetings Act  
because it did not appear on the agenda. Mr. Pitchford responded that the meeting was a regularly scheduled  
Council meeting and bringing forth the motion to censure was not a violation of the Open Meetings Act.  
Mr. Foster stated that the court found the documents to be privileged and while there are several routes Council  
could take, it was Council's duty to convey that this type of behavior will not be tolerated.  
Mrs. Kowalski responded that it took the court two years to rule on the lawsuit because it was not clear whether  
there was a partial or full waiver of privilege. She further stated that she has not been afforded due process for  
any of the attempts to censure, how she upheld her oath of office, and filed a lawsuit in an effort to clear her  
professional reputation.  
Dr. Bird questioned why Council was discussing this now and if any new information had been uncovered .  
Mr. Banweg reasoned that the present motion for censure did not move forward because the 2022 censure was  
in litigation, stating that the two parts of the case were whether Council had the authority to censure and that  
documents were privileged. He continued, saying that the judge ruled that Council does have the authority and  
that the privileged documents were released by Mrs. Kowalski. Mr. Banweg further addressed Dr. Bird's  
question about timing, stating that the judge's ruling was released in July.  
Mr. Sutton addressed Dr. Goetz's point of order regarding a motion during Council Comments, stating that any  
member can make a motion during this portion of the meeting. He further summarized his understanding of Mr.  
Foster's motion and different penalties, that this motion is only a verbal warning, and that he agrees that there  
was a violation of Ohio Revised Code concerning attorney-client privilege.  
Mrs. Heater stated that elected officials have a duty to uphold the oath of office and while everyone makes  
mistakes, she has seen no remorse or accountability from Mrs. Kowalski and would support the censure.  
Discussion followed concerning whether the documents were privileged and the subsequent actions taken by  
Councilmembers on receipt of the email forwarded by the resident.  
Mr. Sutton called the question in order for a vote to be taken.  
A motion was made by Mr. Foster, seconded by Mr. Banweg, to censure Mrs. Kowalski for  
sending privileged documents to a private citizen and attempting to defame the Council  
President. The motion carried by the following vote:  
Aye:  
Nay:
