Ethan Hadley, president and CEO of the Crossville Chamber of Commerce, told the council that the pre-construction meeting for the planned spec building drew several construction companies and that at least one new prospect has already committed to visit the site. He said the chamber hopes construction will begin this summer and that the interest generated by the project is attracting additional prospects to the city.

The city manager reported that the city will close on the sale of the Avogen property next week and reminded the council that the spec building bid date is May 30 at 2:00 p.m., when bids will be opened. The city manager also reported that rumble strips and a new crosswalk have been installed on Deerfield Road to slow traffic and improve trail access.

The chamber also noted Leadership Cumberland is proceeding with visits to local industries and said the program has its largest class yet. Council members did not take votes on these informational reports during the meeting; items were presented as manager and chamber updates.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","City of Crossville - City Council - May 13, 2025","oneSentenceSummary","The Crossville Chamber reported strong developer interest in a planned spec building; city staff said the Avogen property sale will close next week and the city has installed rumble strips and a crosswalk on Deerfield Road to slow traffic.","taxTitle","Crossville, Cumberland County, Tennessee","taxId",71189,"location","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":75,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":76,"_41":77,"_43":78,"_45":79,"_46":80,"_48":81,"_50":82,"_52":83,"_54":55,"_56":57,"_58":84,"_60":61,"_62":63,"_64":85,"_66":67,"_68":69,"_70":67,"_71":72,"_73":72},6561140,"Mayor-authorized merger between Crab Orchard Utility District and Water Authority set for May 26; council pulls related contract",129,623000,752000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3295822-dc62d9515769bea5a278706b76cb94db&start=623&end=752","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3295822-dc62d9515769bea5a278706b76cb94db/thumbnail_623000.jpg","/articles/6561140/Crossville/Cumberland-County/Tennessee/Mayor-authorized-merger-between-Crab-Orchard-Utility-District-and-Water-Authority-set-for-May-26-council-pulls-related-contract","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6561140-eec591f5485fbf7afd96984c59ed5692/orig.mp4?Expires=1771190470&Signature=LfiY7gHoAIqh2H7wcPNnXJMOLWQmq06lU3C4KP6-goaIz0QZKD3EUHxDEMVPIr0u8RXMNlB15V9GjpNivs1F5l~74YUzY3MRKK0Xnn21dOUHwrr5qgZou3goKINYn7EPBL-HQR2uCt8cSRsbfJQTMQeQ6ZDY9zQb-ubmcUmsIrEHcQ1AH7QypkNRVr75JdjahzyZrxZZKyrDXxD6Xb8hok~QHCrYH2rHzD-AMjo2sqDh5XtftUxfnmaPR0Q5C01mS7lcmk8rSlJoWl83GOlj95yHQwnTSaodGN5mE034h-CnpDZDPXvzMblCa5aoBnj-7vuLBqDzStaeN8GALnhzag__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Crossville City Council removed a contract involving Crab Orchard Utility District from its consent agenda and left the item for further review after the city attorney said the mayor has authorized a merger between Crab Orchard Utility District and the Water Authority effective May 26 at 12:01 a.m.

The city attorney told the council that because of an identified conflict of interest involving city representation on the matter, the contract (listed on the agenda as item 5(p)) had been pulled from the consent agenda and removed from that night's agenda. The attorney said there may need to be a special-called meeting to approve the contract once the legal representation conflict is resolved and the terms are agreed.

The transcript shows the contract was discussed briefly in work sessions and was intentionally held for separate consideration. Council members did not vote on the contract during the regular meeting; the item remains pending further legal and administrative steps.

The mayor, R.J. Crawford, and the city attorney spoke to the council on the issue; the city attorney indicated the effective date for the merger and noted a time-sensitive need for council approval once conflicts are addressed.","City attorney said the mayor has authorized a merger between Crab Orchard Utility District and the Water Authority effective May 26; the council removed a contract involving the utility district from the consent agenda pending additional review and possibly a special-called meeting.",{"_33":87,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":88,"_41":89,"_43":90,"_45":91,"_46":92,"_48":93,"_50":94,"_52":95,"_54":55,"_56":57,"_58":96,"_60":61,"_62":63,"_64":97,"_66":67,"_68":69,"_70":67,"_71":72,"_73":72},6561145,"Crossville council approves beer permit, multiple board appointments and consent agenda",593,64000,657000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3295822-dc62d9515769bea5a278706b76cb94db&start=64&end=657","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3295822-dc62d9515769bea5a278706b76cb94db/thumbnail_64000.jpg","/articles/6561145/Crossville/Cumberland-County/Tennessee/Crossville-council-approves-beer-permit-multiple-board-appointments-and-consent-agenda","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6561145-805e68e758f944d220a5022d9e8c2528/orig.mp4?Expires=1771190470&Signature=TKL4pw95kvQiY76RqbPBTYvICdjSWkQg8lMybHAJSVfsMkzX6n5kw72zslcmvuZTMgt12nBZK8lvvm6KuyxyG8zrfJMxfUVquLlhFfy7w0y5zfRiylYzjfWCnMsSUZTJfIi6rhQJl4dD8cuqzcj8wDcocTy2OR8q8ooRn30FM6Z16Q5OuGlCXHqudTSKlkQVyh5wuWvabdMgzkKXZLGkYu5mLEur9dtli04WJe-3vvEMYj7MJO0~hXFdtVU8Oy6on18B~4cDTK8rZdfMl4bS9lxQ7vDaFwraNbogN8CLqvexISNHbNJI7BVskDMS7iGnGgVblrkR5z7VikUaQCv5bw__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The Crossville City Council approved a beer permit for De Morgan Barn Incorporated and confirmed a series of board appointments, and it approved the consent agenda at its May meeting.

The council voted by voice to grant a beer permit to De Morgan Barn Incorporated for its UGA location after a staff report found no issue with issuing the license. Council members then approved reappointments and new appointments to multiple city boards, including the Crossville Housing Authority, the Personnel Board and the Building Codes Board of Appeals. The council approved the consent agenda items 5(a) through 5(u) with item 5(p) — a contract involving Crab Orchard Utility District — removed for separate consideration.

The beer permit was introduced by staff and approved after a motion and a second; the vote was taken by voice and recorded as carried. The council combined motions to fill two Personnel Board vacancies and to reappoint and appoint three members to the Building Codes Board of Appeals; both combined motions were approved by voice vote. The formal motions and outcomes recorded in the meeting transcript follow below.
