Staff said some downtown blocks are TDOT right‑of‑way, which requires the city and contractor to meet state specifications and secure TDOT permission for work and for any deviations such as nighttime operations. Public works staff said portions of the south and east sides of the square belong to the city and could be cost‑shared for repairs; the north and west sides are on state highway and must meet TDOT specs.

Contract representatives described a process that includes grinding or milling concrete in places where concrete exists, then applying flowable fill and a paving mix. Staff noted that changes in materials and filling procedures over time have affected pavement performance and that specifying the preferred fill and mix in bid documents could limit future patching problems.

Public works also requested permission to place several older vehicles and equipment (including a gooseneck trailer, a paving machine and a 1979 water truck) on surplus lists for sale. Staff asked whether the board wanted to change bid specifications to require that when pavement is dug up it be restored with concrete or with hot‑mix asphalt; staff noted that such specification changes would require ordinance revision or administrative action.

Staff discussed scheduling heavy‑traffic stretches for nighttime work to reduce daytime disruptions; they noted TDOT must approve nighttime work on state right‑of‑way, and a separate TDOT sewage project on Huntsville Highway could affect timing. No formal contract was awarded at the work session; staff said they would follow up with details and a formal recommendation to the board.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","BOMA Work Session 06 05 25","oneSentenceSummary","Public Works staff and a contractor described plan to use Lincoln Pavement for downtown milling and paving work; parts of the downtown project are on Tennessee Department of Transportation (TDOT) right-of-way, requiring TDOT permission and nighttime work to reduce daytime traffic impacts.","taxTitle","Fayetteville, Lincoln County, Tennessee","taxId",71246,"location","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":76,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":77,"_41":78,"_43":79,"_45":80,"_47":81,"_49":82,"_51":83,"_53":84,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":85,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":86,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6211406,"Fayetteville secures 100% Brownfield assessment for Craft Building; demolition remains uncertain",463,2089539,2553359,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3696077-80eb33548ffe940fc8661b7e037da563&start=2089&end=2553","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3696077-80eb33548ffe940fc8661b7e037da563/thumbnail_2089539.jpg","/articles/6211406/Fayetteville/Lincoln-County/Tennessee/Fayetteville-secures-100-Brownfield-assessment-for-Craft-Building-demolition-remains-uncertain","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6211406-93ff41e651c93e7368fd82331bbbbc75/orig.mp4?Expires=1776083008&Signature=SFLKEkLTT5c37aXlDWMrQjl5YV7fnkl5kJ4bEntSebW7Q3a6VuCIHeCqp2bDU48kOVHgvPKg3iMk0GEKVldvZTUizktEGL6w2yQPnqWgvBVGOt4NK1H8Zn6D30tmHidQlrFF6w1H9GSxYtv31KljMgQODtL1YBVaI3Clzr5GWBBtyHg7nhCYi~6T16Bbb~PWojT8ivIzca7-d-gqyK6bDIWChNUJelryVAqopXmP8cC7dHQ~bdDYfvzr14L3hJ088ORGTHBhfWddbuY3IZGi~5fxFNOEt3M~w7yYZpN97p8AF2PPK2s16u-EBlqwH8dh69jGOBCWANzSIoMmp1Qoew__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","City staff told the Board of Mayor and Aldermen that a 100%‑funded Brownfield assessment will be performed at the Craft Building at Stonebridge Park, a decades‑long eyesore, and that the assessment will determine contamination risks and next steps.

Jill Smith, identified in the session as a city inspector and the lead on the Brownfield contacts, said South Central Tennessee Development District and Brownfield contractors will perform a full assessment — testing for asbestos, lead and other contaminants — and then submit findings to the state. Smith said the assessment is fully funded and that the city does not have to pay for that initial phase.

Smith said the assessment “will give us grounds to negotiate a price” if the city decides to buy the property and pursue demolition. She estimated demolition could cost about $400,000. City staff warned that once the city condemns a property it may be ineligible for certain Brownfield funding processes, and advised waiting for assessment results before pursuing condemnation.

City staff said Brownfield representatives will appear at the upcoming regular board meeting to explain the assessment results and recommended next steps. Staff also reported that South Central obtained funding to assess three local buildings (the Craft Building, the old hospital, and another industrial site), and that the Craft Building stood out because of its location adjacent to a major park.

No purchase, condemnation, or demolition contract was approved at the work session. The board was presented with information about the assessment funding, the timeline (staff estimated it could take about a year from assessment to remediation planning), and the potential cost range for demolition. City staff said a Brownfield grant for demolition remains possible but is not guaranteed.","City staff said the Brownfield assessment for the Craft Building at Stonebridge Park is fully funded by South Central; the assessment will inventory hazardous materials and inform options that could include purchase and demolition, which staff estimated could cost about $400,000.",{"_33":88,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":89,"_41":90,"_43":91,"_45":92,"_47":93,"_49":94,"_51":95,"_53":96,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":97,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":98,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":68,"_72":73,"_74":73},6211410,"Fayetteville work session revisits four-store cap on liquor licenses after local business plea",2692,77685,2769800,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3696077-80eb33548ffe940fc8661b7e037da563&start=77&end=2769","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3696077-80eb33548ffe940fc8661b7e037da563/thumbnail_77685.jpg","/articles/6211410/Fayetteville/Lincoln-County/Tennessee/Fayetteville-work-session-revisits-four-store-cap-on-liquor-licenses-after-local-business-plea","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6211410-76afe25ab29993b539abcef1fa97984c/orig.mp4?Expires=1776083008&Signature=eSxUAteeWjVSN5hGtAsIStG6hcA5zHrerZfrXrPDst41hk4AeTtn~MoOAlUT1-4wejf8E0-seyf215cHtoXvvys5tbgL3OwwYd7sveUJ0GDbL7K~XWuNSqj1XwugVBq0B9bs56T~ayZxjAsMV4ZQ~qh0GvRVQq2FxhdDeol8lE2wI9qLSV~BKbwBM2E92V3YoQN9Kt3zrkOv0qsL-62xfvvCg1oIyvOudVUefPwJRj0suCxX4GJ-avsIP0Abyra3HPOIGw-L~c8nrOCNdSIFt0Bc~l85GwWDNFFnXsMVFeNFQDRBpTOJMKJHl~Zvb-wHhMNcNPI8xzVeIFlSB~xRqg__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Sal Patel, a Fayetteville resident, told the Board of Mayor and Aldermen at a June work session that removing the city’s four‑store cap on liquor licenses would “devalue the significant investments made by existing small business owners in our community.”

Patel said his family sought a liquor store license in 2022, respected the board’s decision then to uphold the cap, and later invested over $1 million to buy an existing licensed location. “Removing it would not only devalue the significant investments made by existing small business owners in our community, but it would also risk saturating the market,” he said.

The issue returned to the board after a developer approached city staff about opening a new liquor store and asked whether the cap could be changed or removed. City staff said the proposal was discussed in committee and was brought to the work session to ensure transparency and to let the full board consider next steps.

Board members who spoke at the session described differing views. Some said the existing cap helped protect long-established, locally owned businesses and their customer bases; others said they favored letting market demand determine whether new stores can open. One board member said they supported removing the cap on free‑market grounds, while other board members expressed concern about market saturation and protecting current owners’ investments.

Council members discussed procedural next steps, including whether to hold a public hearing. Board members agreed to place the matter on the upcoming Tuesday board meeting agenda so representatives and members of the public could comment further, and to revisit the cap in committee if needed.

No ordinance change or vote on the cap occurred during the work session; the board’s action was limited to directing staff to put the item on the next regular meeting agenda for additional discussion and public comment.","A Fayetteville resident urged the Board of Mayor and Aldermen to keep a four-store cap on liquor licenses; board members discussed whether to open the cap after a developer inquiry and agreed to bring the issue to the next board meeting for further public input.","actionData","errors"]
