Board approves Buckner Lane project contracts, Industrial Board appointments and support for ambulatory surgery center; Stone Creek PDP deferred

The Board of Mayor and Aldermen approved multiple items related to road improvements and project services and took action supporting an ambulatory surgical center certificate-of-need application.

At the meeting Mayor Hageman and the board voted 9–0 to approve three resolutions authorizing professional services and funding steps for the Buckner Lane South segment widening and Port Royal intersection projects, and to appoint members to the Industrial Development Board. The board also approved the consent agenda 9–0, which included multiple administrative and purchasing items.

The specific votes recorded in the meeting transcript were: - Resolution 25-75: Approve task order contract with Thomas & Hutton for construction engineering inspection (CEI) services for city-owned utility relocations on the Buckner Lane South segment widening project. Motion carried 9–0. - Resolution 25-76: Approve funding request No. 1 for land acquisition purchases for tracts of the Buckner Lane Port Royal intersection improvement project.

Earlier under previous business the board considered first reading of Ordinance 25-03 (Stone Creek PDP, amendment to Ordinance 18-21) and moved to defer the item indefinitely; the motion to defer passed 9–0.

The board also took up a resolution moved from the consent agenda, Resolution 25-80, "a resolution in support of issuance of a certificate of need for an ambulatory surgical center in Spring Hill, Tennessee." After discussion over language in the whereas clauses and whether the facility at Port Royal and Saturn Parkway constituted an ambulatory surgical center within city limits, the board voted on the resolution. The chair noted a roll-call vote was requested; the final tally recorded in the transcript for Resolution 25-80 was yes 8, no 0, abstain 1 (recorded as "8 to 0 to 1" in the minutes). The roll call and preceding discussion appear in the transcript.

No other formal votes were recorded in the transcript. Several work-session items and planning discussions followed the voting portion of the meeting.
