Pulaski aldermen approve permits, accept utility reports; rebid snow-plow contract and postpone court code rewrite
Summary
At the Feb. 25 Pulaski Board meeting aldermen received and filed utility reports, approved two permits (a prayer service and a car show), opened bids for snow-plowing with no responses and agreed to rebid later, and discussed postponing municipal court code revisions pending staff review.
The Pulaski Board of Mayor and Aldermen on Feb. 25 accepted routine utility reports, approved two event permits and discussed contract bidding and code revisions.
In a roll-call motion the board moved to receive and file water and natural gas reports; the motion was made by Mister Keith and seconded by Mister Gentry and carried by roll call. Council members who responded in roll call included Massey, Miles, Worsham, Keith, Gentry, Brian and Friendly.
The board approved a permit for a prayer service organized by Cheryl Aubrey to be held June 21, 2025, on the north side of the square; the motion was made by Massey and seconded by Brian and passed on roll call. The board also approved a request by “Speed That Fast” for an annual car show on Aug. 9, 2025, in the north end of town. Mister Keith moved approval of the car-show permit and Missus Miles seconded; aldermen voted aye and the permit was approved.
On the snow-plowing contract the city opened bids for snow removal for the street department and received no responsive bids. Staff and aldermen discussed rebidding the contract in the fall (September/October) so equipment could be scheduled and in place before winter; no award was made at the Feb. 25 meeting.
On a proposed municipal court ordinance and code cleanup, staff recommended delaying or removing the item from the immediate agenda to allow time to reconcile conflicts between the city’s existing code book and materials provided by an outside consultant (identified in the transcript as Empast). Council members asked staff to consolidate changes and to present one comprehensive ordinance that would update antiquated fees and correct inconsistent references. The recorder noted a plan to meet with key staff and to return a consolidated version for council review.
A request was announced for travel approval for Jordan Ramsey to attend the THP Women’s Conference in Nashville April 14–16; the transcript records the request but does not show an explicit roll-call outcome for that specific travel request in the provided excerpt.
Speakers on these items included Massey, Mister Keith, Mister Gentry, Missus Miles, Brian, Worsham and Harrison; Chief Deaky and an unnamed consultant were mentioned in relation to the municipal-court code work.
