Red Bank City Council appoints Tiffany Bell to nonprofit advisory board

The City of Red Bank, TN, held a work session on June 3, 2025, where key discussions focused on appointments to the nonprofit citizens advisory board and the approval of a contract for data analyst services.

One of the main topics was the appointment of Tiffany Bell to the nonprofit citizens advisory board. Director Johnson noted that the board has had a vacancy for some time and emphasized the importance of filling this position, especially with the recent release of the 2025 nonprofit grant application. Bell, who has nonprofit experience, was recommended by the board to help evaluate grant applications and provide recommendations.

Another significant agenda item was the approval of a contract with BuzzClan LLC for on-call municipal data analyst services, not to exceed $15,000 annually. This initiative aims to enhance the city's data strategy, enabling better decision-making through data analysis and visualization. The city had conducted a procurement process, selecting BuzzClan LLC from a competitive field of applicants. The initial focus for the data analyst will include analyzing property tax rates and assisting in the development of a capital improvement plan.

The meeting concluded with a discussion on the importance of these initiatives for the city's growth and informed decision-making. The funding for the data analyst services is included in the proposed budget for fiscal year 2026.
