Summary

The Marshall City Council handled organizational matters and brief personnel items, naming a mayor pro tem, appointing grievance-board members, presenting service awards and administering an oath of office to incoming board members.
Council members nominated Craig Thompson for mayor pro tem; the nomination was approved by voice vote. The council then nominated John Allen and a person identified by first name only, Nathan, to serve on the grievance board; the nominations were approved by voice vote.
The mayor presented city service plaques to Council members Charles Guthrie and Cook (identified as council members in the meeting). Ms. Lewis administered roll-call duties and led the oath of office for new board members; the transcript records an oath-of-office segment but does not specify the names of the board members sworn in beyond the roll-call confirmations.
Separately, the mayor invited council members to consider moving the regular Tuesday meeting start time from 6:00 p.m. to 5:30 p.m. Council members discussed the proposal informally and agreed to think about it and bring it back for discussion at the next meeting; no formal motion or vote was recorded on meeting-time changes.
All nominations and appointments were handled by voice vote as recorded in the meeting transcript; no contested nominations or formal roll-call tallies were recorded for these organizational items.
