The backdrop, bright lights and microphones were new additions to the Amelia Council meeting on Monday, June 15, as the village began video taping the proceedings for Union Township Television and Clermont County Communications Channel.

“I want to welcome viewers who may be watching this meeting on Union Township TV and Clermont County Communications Channel 22,” said Mayor Leroy Ellington. “We begin a new chapter for the Village of Amelia by broadcasting our meetings. We are moving forward, Amelia’s future is ahead of us and not behind us. Amelia Village Council is continuing to strive for a high level of transparency in government and will continue to seek community involvement. The village administration, council and staff want to make sure that our residents receive the support and sense of community that they deserve.”
