Council prepares to streamline budget amendments with electronic voting

During the recent work session held on April 21, 2025, the Hartsville/Trousdale County government discussed the upcoming budget amendments, highlighting a streamlined approach to the voting process. The council plans to utilize electronic voting, allowing all amendments to be addressed in a single motion. This method aims to enhance efficiency during the voting process.

Officials encouraged council members to identify any specific budget amendments they wish to separate for individual consideration by the next meeting on Monday. This proactive approach is expected to facilitate clearer discussions and ensure that all amendments receive the attention they deserve.

The decision to adopt electronic voting reflects a commitment to modernizing the council's operations, making it easier for members to participate and for the public to follow the proceedings. As the council prepares for the upcoming vote, the focus remains on ensuring transparency and accountability in the budget amendment process.
