The Cleburne County Commission convened on November 13, 2024, to address several key agenda items, including resolutions for funding and legislative proposals. The meeting began with a discussion on a proposal that required approval before being sent to Montgomery. The commission emphasized the urgency of submitting this proposal by the end of November, as requested by Senator Price.

A motion was made to add this proposal to the agenda, which was unanimously approved. Following this, the commission discussed the potential for sales leases in Cleburne County, with a suggestion to consult the county attorney regarding a housing bill.

The commission then moved to a resolution to allocate $17,000 from a discretionary fund for improvements to the parking lot at the chamber of commerce. This motion was also seconded and passed without opposition.

As the meeting progressed, the commission addressed the amendment of resolution number 5467, which involved a proposal to increase the salaries of certain elected officials. The proposed base salary for the commission was set at $70,000 annually, affecting the next election term. The commission voted to draft a bill for this salary increase and forward it to the local legislative delegation for consideration.

The meeting concluded with all resolutions and motions being passed, reflecting a collaborative effort among the commissioners to address both immediate funding needs and long-term legislative changes. The commission plans to follow up on these discussions in future meetings as they work towards implementing the approved resolutions.
