City council approves minutes, compensation ordinance, meeting date change and reappoints two board members

The Bridal City Council approved a series of routine items and appointments during an unspecified meeting.

Councilors voted to approve the Jan. 13, 2025 regular meeting minutes. Councilor Barton moved approval and Councilor Broughton seconded; the vote recorded was yes from Councilors Watson, Barton, Brown, Jennings and Broughton, and the minutes were approved.

The council then approved Ordinance 25-0113-1 to increase compensation for the mayor and city council. Councilor Watson moved the ordinance and Councilor Barton seconded; the roll call recorded five yes votes (Watson, Barton, Brown, Jennings and Broughton) and the ordinance was approved.

The council also approved a one-time meeting date change for April, moving the regular April 28 meeting to April 21 under Resolution 25-0123-1. Councilor Watson moved the resolution and Councilor Broughton seconded; the vote was recorded as unanimous among the five councilors present and the resolution passed.

On appointments, Councilor Watson nominated Thomas Watson for reappointment to the recreation board; Councilor Barton seconded. The council recorded unanimous support and the transcript states, "Thomas Watson has been reappointed to the red board." The record shows the reappointment but does not include minutes-level detail about the term length.

At the end of the meeting the mayor announced an appointment to the housing board, saying, "I reappoint Antonio Smith." The transcript does not record a mover, a second, a roll-call vote or other formalities for that housing-board appointment within the portion of the transcript provided; those procedural details are not specified in the meeting record supplied.

All votes expressly recorded in the supplied transcript for the items above were unanimous among the council members who voted.
