Crossville City Council approves contract with Crab Orchard Utility District

The City of Crossville held a special meeting on June 3, 2025, where council members addressed two key items of business. The meeting commenced with all council members present and included a brief public comment session, which yielded no responses from attendees.

The first major topic was the approval of a contract with the Crab Orchard Utility District. The contract, which had been modified from its original terms, now reflects a merger into a new department and has been reduced from a 20-year term to a 10-year term. The council discussed the contract's provisions, including a maximum capacity of one million gallons per day. After a motion was made and seconded, the council unanimously approved the updated contract.

The second item on the agenda involved the approval of change order number 4 for a project identified as TAP 126662. This change order was necessary due to weather-related delays, requiring an extension. The council moved to approve the change order pending approval from the Tennessee Department of Transportation (TDOT). This motion also passed unanimously.

The meeting concluded with a motion to adjourn, which was also approved without opposition. The decisions made during this meeting are expected to facilitate ongoing utility management and infrastructure projects in Crossville.
