The recent government meeting began with a moment of silence in honor of Jim Holley, a former attorney for Hville County, who passed away earlier that day. Council members and attendees reflected on Holley's contributions to the community, with sentiments shared about his character and service.

Following the invocation led by Clerk Aretha Eubanks, the council proceeded to approve the meeting agenda, which included an executive session scheduled between old and new business. The agenda was unanimously approved after a motion by Mr. Talbert and a second by Ms. Ireland.

The meeting featured guest speaker Rick Green, the Government Services Director for Upper Savannah Council of Governments. Green expressed gratitude for the opportunity to address the council and indicated he would present an important plan relevant to the community.

The meeting underscored the council's commitment to honoring community members and addressing significant local issues, setting a collaborative tone for the discussions ahead.
