At its organizational meeting the Chilton County Commission approved a series of routine and administrative items in a series of mostly unanimous votes.
Consent agenda: The commission approved the consent agenda, which included amended minutes (Oct. 28), the Nov. 13 claims list and several new hires across departments (sheriff’s office, corrections, parks & recreation), and road department items including surplus property and dump truck rotation resolutions.
Cyber insurance: Staff reported on a premium increase for cyber coverage after soliciting quotes and recommended approval. Commissioners approved the resolution authorizing the cyber coverage and the premium increase unanimously.
Masonry Arts panels: The commission accepted a $32,772 proposal from Masonry Arts to remove, transport and install eight engraved panels from the old courthouse to the new courthouse and amended the motion to forward the request to the PBA for payment consideration. Commissioners discussed potential breakage and repair; the item passed and will be reviewed by PBA for payment decisions.
Signage and dumpster: The commission authorized the road department to install horse-and-buggy signs on designated routes (placement at the beginning and end of routes was specified). Commissioners also authorized the commission office/chair to contract for a roll-off dumpster on courthouse property (funding from ALATCF fund); the body discussed expected rental and per-ton/dump fees.
Invoices: Thompson Tractor invoices were approved; the transcript records an abstention on one vote (noted as an abstention but exact roll-call detail is limited in the transcript).
