Sweetwater council approves Planning and Zoning and Board of Adjustments appointments

At a 9:00 a.m. special call meeting, the Sweetwater City Council approved three appointments to local advisory bodies and then adjourned.

The council approved the appointment of Scott Morgan and Rodney Foster as regular members and Richard Ferguson as a new alternate to the Planning and Zoning Commission, and approved Reese Locke as a new member of the Board of Adjustments. Both actions were adopted by voice vote after a motion and second and no substantive discussion was recorded.

Unidentified Speaker introduced agenda item 3(a) to approve Scott Morgan and Rodney Foster as regular members and Richard Ferguson as an alternate to the Planning and Zoning Commission. After a motion and second, the chair called for a voice vote, saying, "All in favor, please say aye." The transcript records "Aye," and the speaker declared the appointments approved.

For agenda item 3(b), the council considered the appointment of Reese Locke to the Board of Adjustments. There were no questions recorded for staff, a motion and second were made, the chair again called for a voice vote and the appointment was approved.

Earlier in the meeting the chair read the city's public-comment rule, noting non-personnel and non-litigation matters are limited to three minutes; no members of the public spoke during the meeting. The council moved to adjourn immediately after the appointments; a motion, second and voice vote closed the session.

No roll-call vote or individual vote tallies were recorded in the transcript; outcomes are recorded as voice-approved motions per the meeting record.
