Cheatham County commissioners approved a resolution to authorize an election to allow the sale of alcoholic beverages in the county, with the question scheduled for the November 2020 ballot.
The motion was made by Commissioner Diana Pike Lovell and seconded by Commissioner Randy Liles during Unfinished Business. County Attorney Michael Bligh stated the measure would appear on the November ballot. The roll-call vote on the resolution recorded 8 Yes, 4 No, 0 Absent, and is recorded in the minutes as Resolution 4.
The minutes do not record public testimony in favor or opposition during the earlier public hearing on the budget, nor do they show additional debate on this specific resolution within the body’s Unfinished Business. The action is procedural: it authorizes the county election commission to place the measure before voters in November.
