Summary

Mayor asked the council to enter an agreement with Alabama Power to upgrade lighting at Veil Tennis Courts to improve nighttime play; the council approved the request by voice vote.

The Jasper City Council approved an agreement with Alabama Power to upgrade lighting at the Veil Tennis Courts after the mayor described the current conditions as inadequate for night play.
