At the group’s most recent meeting, Monday, Sept. 15, Village Council members asked: For whom should the Village’s American flag be lowered? Those and other questions were raised by Council members in response to the Village following Ohio Gov. At Council’s meeting last week, several villagers and Council members expressed their dismay with the Village’s compliance with Gov. During the citizens concerns segment of Monday’s meeting, several villagers also spoke out against the lowering of the Village flag for Kirk. Flag Code, which provides nonbinding guidelines for displaying and caring for the American flag, there is no mention of penalties for noncompliance with state or federal directives to lower flags to half-staff.
