Chilton County reports animal-control MOA with Tuskegee, multiple hires and a transit safety complaint
Summary
Animal control staff recommended approving a memorandum of agreement with Tuskegee University's College of Veterinary Medicine, reported hires and payroll changes; transit reported new hires and a resident publicly complained about a driver allegedly speeding on county roads.
County animal-control staff told the commission they had a part-time hire (Madison Hill), removed an employee (Sweeney) from payroll effective the prior Monday and will post for a temporary full-time animal care specialist. Staff described a proposed memorandum of agreement (MOA) with Tuskegee University College of Veterinary Medicine and Veterinary Teaching Hospital that would provide services with some discounted fees; animal-control staff recommended the commission approve the MOA pending county attorney review and chairman signature.
Transit Director DeJarnett requested a resolution to make a temporary transit worker full time and to hire a new part-time operator, both with effective dates of Dec. 10. During public comment a resident said they observed a transit driver traveling about 70 mph on county roads and threatened to follow the driver and seek the employee's termination if the behavior continued; transit staff acknowledged the complaint but the transcript contains no formal disciplinary outcome.
The transcript shows department staffing and partnership proposals and records a safety complaint; it does not show formal approvals, disciplinary actions, or the attorney’s final review outcome for the MOA.
