City Council Update

In the first order of business for the November 14 City Council Meeting the Council voted 6-0 to approve the consent agenda consisting of the minutes of the October regular meeting and work session as well as the first read of an Ordinance to amend the Tucker Code Chapter 40 concerning the Hotel Motel tax code to mirror state law language. This was followed by three matters of Old Business on the agenda. These were three second reads on ordinances: two were rezonings and the other a code update. All three were approved with a 6-0 vote.

For New Business staff presented four items for consideration:

• First read of an ordinance for the purpose of amending Tucker Code Chapter 38 to allow for the sale by the City of parcels too small to be used independently.
• A resolution to accept changes in state route designations for Hugh Howell Road and Mountain Industrial Boulevard.
• A contract award to DAF Concrete, Inc for the Juliette Road sidewalk project 
• A Contract amendment for the Trail Segment 1A project

The resolution and two contracts were approved with 6-0 votes.

The Mayor and Council recessed for the purposes of personnel, real estate and litigation and returned to vote 6-0 to approve a settlement with Richard McGaughey.

During the City Council Work Session on November 28 the Mayor and Council attended four presentations: The FY 22 Financial Audit, updated Financial Statements for October, and update on the ongoing Economic Development Strategic Plan, and a presentation on the proposed Town Green design.

All City Council meetings and work sessions take place on the second and fourth Mondays of each month.
