Debbie Harris presented bids for multiple departments. The board awarded the police department's Dodge Durango replacement to Helms Motor Company of Lexington, Tenn.; members recorded the sale of four older vehicles for $19,000 to other jurisdictions and said remaining funds for the replacement would come from the drug fund. Alderman James Baltimore moved approval; Coach Cole seconded, and the motion carried.

Other awards included a 20-ton gas rooftop HVAC unit for the recreation department to Wendell HVAC Services (low bidder), a street-department flail mower to First Choice Farm and Lawn (low bidder, reported as $15,005.32), an airport batwing mower to First Choice Farm and Lawn (reported as $17,001.79), and cemetery herbicide application to Kohl's Custom Applications (low bidder, reported as $25,005.00). Several purchases were described as budgeted and some were paid from ARPA funds; the board followed standard bid notification procedures and accepted low bids where applicable. Motions to award those bids were moved and seconded by various aldermen and carried by voice vote.

The board also approved Resolution 08182025 authorizing the city to participate in the TML Risk Management Pool Safety Partners loss-control matching grant program. Mayor Holden said the program and related administration are handled through SUTIQ and that the grant amount is $3,000 and reimbursable for qualifying expenses. Alderman Dennis Moody moved approval; Ricky Hammond seconded. The resolution passed unanimously.

Board members asked whether some bidders were local; the record shows several vendors are based in Dyersburg and Dyer County. Several motions noted the use of ARPA funds for equipment in the street and airport departments. All awards and the resolution passed on voice votes with no recorded opposition.

Formal purchase orders and contract documents will be completed by city staff following the board's approvals.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","August 18, 2025 Board Meeting","oneSentenceSummary","The board approved several procurement awards including a police SUV, HVAC unit, mowers and cemetery herbicide; it also authorized participation in a $3,000 TML Risk Management Pool safety partners reimbursement grant.","taxTitle","Dyersburg, Dyer County, Tennessee","taxId",70988,"location","Tennessee","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":77,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":78,"_41":79,"_43":80,"_45":81,"_47":82,"_49":83,"_51":84,"_53":85,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":86,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":87,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},5993308,"Dyersburg board adopts 2025–26 budget, keeps property tax rate at $1.83",503,182000,685000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=5880607-a91bbd67e4a8d65c9eedb5d9a565a534&start=182&end=685","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/5880607-a91bbd67e4a8d65c9eedb5d9a565a534/thumbnail_182000.jpg","/articles/5993308/Tennessee/Dyersburg-board-adopts-202526-budget-keeps-property-tax-rate-at-183","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/5993308-8c194b606be8ed0b10857109328614e5/orig.mp4?Expires=1771143329&Signature=Y094AfyOkRoTZX1Fyr26TPJKNfE4xIjW3Dv9PmlLrwCgbEi0jUDlkQRuBxfdGgmubp2u4qVC3eAGwSu1lvarBQo0gQnw0D9YeHUfEgDbZwiGWJabryoqpLxJqthieiGP67KdXzD0l8A21SjSHCRcGER2GcUbUkhDx4B1-xRuaAxaZITEni19~3jA0H1pSGbx-m2AMQqmDQwZ9Rz220dywyx5hmAkpZ5NCuR2Rqkal-XYV4UaKfIeTyKAEOW0tfuEcM7sCW0Tv0SA5sF8eoAnmFsbk8XoclqFJsD5FrDOviakeqQc~rj3vqLCh7b7-lLvvvbhlEQEzhVgjbtxBpbu6g__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The City of Dyersburg Board of Mayor and Aldermen on Aug. 18 adopted the city's annual budget for the fiscal year beginning July 1, 2025, and set the city property tax rate at $1.83.

Mayor Holden said the figure reflected the city's certified tax rate after reappraisal and noted, \"So no tax increase for the city of Dyersburg.\" The measure passed on a motion by Alderman James Baltimore, seconded by Joy Harrison, with all members voting in favor.

The budget follows a reappraisal year and the city's certified tax rate received on July 7, 2025. Mayor Holden told the board that state law prevents rounding up from the certified rate reported to the city. The board also approved a 3% pay increase for city employees and kept employee health-insurance contributions unchanged for the 19th consecutive year; Mayor Holden said weekly employee contributions remain $15 for single coverage, $30 for employee-plus-children, $35 for employee-and-spouse and $45 for family coverage.

At the Aug. 7 finance committee meeting, members approved a one-time library gift and an annual maintenance allocation; the committee report presented to the board recorded a one-time gift of $36,800 and an annual maintenance-of-effort amount of $148,500 for the public library. Treasurer Steve Anderson presented the budget documents and a proposed budget figure as included in the board packet.

Action on the ordinance adopting the budget and tax rate was taken following a public hearing notice included in the meeting packet. There were no public commenters registered for the meeting. Mayor Holden and Treasurer Steve Anderson said more details about departmental allocations and small equipment items would be made available after the meeting.

Board members also discussed storm-damage repairs and potential FEMA assistance for a box culvert repair; city staff said they had met with FEMA and expected FEMA could cover up to about 75% of eligible repairs, but no final determination was recorded during the meeting.

The ordinance adopted at the meeting establishes the city's budget for the fiscal year beginning July 1, 2025, and ending June 30, 2026. Implementation steps, departmental allocations and any required administrative actions will follow through city staff and the treasurer's office.","The City of Dyersburg Board of Mayor and Aldermen adopted the annual budget for fiscal 2025–26 and set the city property tax rate at $1.83, approving a 3% pay increase for employees and maintaining current insurance premiums.","actionData","errors"]
