The Florence City Council reconvened its meeting and confirmed two local appointments while deferring several commission items, according to the meeting transcript.
An unnamed official overseeing agenda items said Jackie Travis was the only applicant for a commission and nominated Travis for appointment; the nomination was seconded and approved by a voice vote. The transcript does not specify which commission Jackie Travis was appointed to.
The confirmation of Andre Shabazz to the city’s public safety citizen review board followed a similar process: the applicant was nominated, seconded and approved by voice vote, and the chair offered congratulations.
Council business that was deferred included the design review board (the item was skipped during the session), a construction and maintenance board of adjustments and appeals item involving four applicants that was referred to the mayor for action, and the resilience and sustainability advisory committee item, which the transcript records as having no applicants and being deferred to Councilman Smith.
During staff’s report, an official singled out Molina Healthcare for assistance; the chair said, "Molina Healthcare, thank you so much. Our our tables at Thanksgiving and Christmas thanks you as well." The transcript records a motion to adjourn shortly afterward and the meeting was closed.
The meeting transcript records voice votes for the motions but does not provide roll-call tallies or the specific commission name tied to Jackie Travis’s appointment. Several items were deferred for later action or referral to other council members.
Actions recorded in the transcript include the reinstatement of the meeting session by voice vote, the nominations and voice-vote confirmations of Jackie Travis and Andre Shabazz (the latter explicitly for the public safety citizen review board), and a motion to adjourn that was approved.
The transcript does not list dates for future hearings or provide further detail about the deferred items; the council adjourned at the end of the recorded segment.
