Chairman Josh Young reconvened the Macon County Board of Commissioners at 6:55 p.m. on Feb. 13, 2025, resuming a session previously recessed from Feb. 11, 2025. Representatives from the Town of Franklin and the Town of Highlands joined county officials for a joint update session.
Members of each body offered updates on current projects and highlighted areas where the county and towns might collaborate. Interim County Manager Warren Cabe, Deputy Clerk Tammy Keezer and County Attorney Eric Ridenour were recorded as present. The minutes say members of both the Franklin Town Council and the Town of Highlands Board of Commissioners also attended and were given an opportunity to speak.
The meeting served as a forum for identifying joint projects and shared concerns; the minutes explicitly state that no formal actions were taken on those topics during the session. Discussion focused on exchanging information and pinpointing issues the jurisdictions could work on together, but there were no motions or votes recorded related to specific project commitments.
A formal motion to recess the meeting was made by Commissioner Breeden and seconded by Commissioner Shearl. The board "voted unanimously to recess until March 4, 2025, at 9:00 a.m.," according to the minutes. The record does not provide a roll-call tally or list the number of yes votes, only that the vote was unanimous.
With no further business reported, the meeting was recessed at 8:15 p.m. The next session of the Macon County Board of Commissioners is scheduled for March 4, 2025, at 9:00 a.m., per the minutes.
