During a recent council work session held on August 22, 2024, members discussed several key items, including the donation of a golf cart to the Tazewell football program and the sale of a police cruiser at auction.
The meeting began with a motion to donate a golf cart to the football parents' booster club, which has expressed interest in using the vehicle for their activities. The golf cart, however, requires adjustments to its speed settings, as it currently operates either too slowly or too quickly. Council members expressed their support for the donation, pending confirmation from the booster club regarding their acceptance of the offer.
In addition to the golf cart donation, the council also addressed the sale of a police cruiser. A motion was made to auction the vehicle, which received unanimous support from the council members present. Furthermore, a contingency plan was proposed: if the booster club declines the golf cart donation, the council will proceed to auction the cart as well.
The meeting concluded without any additional items on the agenda, and no public comments were recorded. The council's decisions reflect a commitment to supporting local programs while also managing surplus assets effectively.
