Click the link below for a short video recap of our November 25th City Council meeting.
You can also read below for a written recap of the meeting.
At City Council they started by approving a change to the city’s annual leave policy for directors. The change gives directors four weeks of vacation upon hire. The council said that this will help hiring offers be more competitive when trying to bring on new directors.
After that the fire department said that they are holding their next round of testing on December 5th. Anyone interested in being part of the testing can fill out an application on the city’s website.
Then we got an update from our IT Department. They said that they have made progress on fixing the library’s computers and they may be online in the next few weeks.
After that our council set a special meeting for December 15th. The meeting will discuss putting the recently annexed Paris & York area and North Richey area into voting districts. This will allow residents in those areas to vote and run in upcoming city elections. The public is invited to attend this meeting.
Next our council amended our election resolution. Another seat from District 4 will now be voted on in our upcoming elections. This means that one seat from Districts 1-3 and two seats from District 4 will be on the ballot in addition to the position of mayor.
In closing, all of our councilors wished everyone a happy Thanksgiving and wished the Bulldogs good luck in this week’s championship game.
This has been your City Council recap. We hope you join us for our next meeting December 9th
