Commission proclaims Suicide Prevention Awareness Month and names bridge for A.C. Hurst
Summary
Claiborne County commissioners proclaimed September 2020 as Suicide Prevention Awareness Month and passed a resolution posthumously honoring Constable Alexander 'A.C.' Hurst by naming a bridge in his memory.
The Claiborne County Commission on Sept. 21 adopted two proclamatory resolutions: one declaring September 2020 Suicide Prevention Awareness Month in Claiborne County and another posthumously honoring Alexander Charlie 'A.C.' Hurst by naming bridge structure #13SR0320003 on SR‑32 the 'Constable A.C. Hurst Memorial Bridge.'
Resolution 2020-082 cites Tennessee suicide statistics and state suicide‑prevention initiatives and urges citizens to raise awareness and support for those affected by suicide. Resolution 2020-088 documents A.C. Hurst's decades of service as a constable, lists lifetime achievements and service, and directs county officials to name the listed bridge in his honor. Both measures carried in the meeting minutes.
