Members at a Martinsville City meeting approved routine claims and finalized minutes for both September and August. The meeting record shows motions and seconding for each action and voice votes on each motion; no personnel hires were reported.
The approvals came after the chair introduced the item to accept the September 2025 claims and appropriations and asked for additions or questions. A motion to accept the claims was made and seconded and the chair called for a voice vote; the transcript records aye responses and the matter moved forward.
