During discussion the record first states the city budget hearing “will be June … prior to our regular monthly” and then explicitly says “it’s June 11.” A subsequent speaker said “Right? Tenth,” creating a discrepancy in the transcript about whether the city hearing is set for June 10 or June 11. The board approved a motion to schedule the city budget public hearing at 5:00 p.m.; the motion was made by Alderman Allen and seconded by Alderman Keenan and carried by roll call.

The board then called a public hearing for the FY2026 Fairfield school budget to follow the city hearing at 5:00 p.m. A motion by Vice Mayor Bradford, seconded by Alderman Alder, carried.

City Administrator Kevin Owens said he consulted the city’s human-resources official and reported that city employees currently receive 13 holidays: New Year’s Day, Martin Luther King Jr. Day, Washington’s Birthday (Presidents Day), Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Veterans Day, Thanksgiving Day, Christmas Day, Good Friday, the day after Thanksgiving, Christmas Eve and an employee’s birthday. He said county employees receive 14 holidays, which includes the 11 federal holidays plus additional days.

Alderman Faulkner moved to add Juneteenth; Alderman Allen seconded. Board members discussed that the change will affect police scheduling; an attendee observed limited operational impact for most departments. The motion carried.

The item was presented as a salvage-purchase opportunity from PEP. Board members discussed that the truck — reported to be a 2021 model and previously valued between $140,000 and $160,000 — had frame damage but retained a usable motor and transmission. A meeting speaker said a mechanic estimated the engine alone could be worth about $6,000 and listed salvageable items including rims and tires.

Alderman Bradford moved approval of the purchase; Alderman Keenan seconded. The motion carried by voice/roll call. The board authorized the city to use any salvaged parts for municipal vehicles or equipment; the transcript did not record a vendor contract or a timeline for transfer of the vehicle.","The board approved buying a totaled rescue truck from the city's insurer for $3,500 to use for spare parts; speakers noted the engine and transmission appear salvageable though the frame is warped.",{"_33":100,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":101,"_41":102,"_43":103,"_45":104,"_47":105,"_49":106,"_51":107,"_53":108,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":109,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":110,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6230580,"Fairfield approves library HVAC replacement using $40,000 from fire savings and about $26,500 from fund balance",146,50000,196000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3442175-39c11af90532095a512e38bb543066e5&start=50&end=196","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3442175-39c11af90532095a512e38bb543066e5/thumbnail_50000.jpg","/articles/6230580/Fayetteville/Lincoln-County/Tennessee/Fairfield-approves-library-HVAC-replacement-using-40000-from-fire-savings-and-about-26500-from-fund-balance","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6230580-cf35ea5548867cc2b59079477f897595/orig.mp4?Expires=1775184333&Signature=bDb3bozlLqhfVLSmLoH1BJ~Qz5JkCVkRrwPRP6wdOYnqKZc~FeF~Gpz7v4A2-uF8CFwOfZ9IaW5dfrZDayecZg2PbNP81ps7a6KhUkez~n7LHvsSUwUcD6JGXHLvxsd1SYVFal9KwDP3nW3e4gCQawSLHRfH3m3w60GJ0qNrIDD6z4kc4M3JrBwvSVQHeF~vcdCXa6XXsrqM0ZfUo80IzqDmqPJmRsHbfNIliq5Ryi6AtOWixCsJaZg0TVYyR0zrdGGZ2rtUtL-RhoO7q~j7INK6hxvl4Tqe5xX1RG0Q9HeOjrHXl6vpMVU7g~gqChGsaSkzKfFemDojEcqy3wbDuw__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","The City of Fairfield Board of Aldermen voted to fund a replacement HVAC system at the city library, using $40,000 identified in the current fire department budget and about $26,500 from the city fund balance.

City Administrator Kevin Owens told the board he and a colleague researched available funding and found $40,000 in the fire department allocation that will not be used this fiscal year and recommended the remainder be taken from fund balance. Owens said the $40,000 was already allocated and would not carry into the FY2026 budget.

A motion to approve the funding was made by Alderman Alder and seconded by Alderman Keenan. The roll call recorded Alderman Palmer voting aye, Alderman Long voting no, and Aldermen Oliver, Allen, Bradford and Keenan voting aye; the motion carried.

The board’s action was a one-time funding decision for the current fiscal year; members did not change standing holiday or personnel policies as part of the vote. The record does not specify the HVAC vendor or the project timeline.","The Board of Aldermen approved using $40,000 from unneeded fire-department funds and roughly $26,500 from the city fund balance to pay for a new HVAC system at the public library; the funding will not roll into the FY2026 budget.","actionData","errors"]
