Summary
At its March meeting the Pulaski County Quorum Court adopted minutes and approved three resolutions and two ordinances, including the reappointment to the Central Arkansas Library System board, a budget appropriation for a peer recovery specialist grant, a company-name update for a prior contract, an economic incentive endorsement, and a rezoning in the Mead Subdivision.
The Pulaski County Quorum Court approved a slate of routine items at its March meeting, adopting the previous meeting’s minutes and passing three resolutions and two ordinances by recorded roll call.
The court confirmed the reappointment of Dustin Daniel to the Central Arkansas Library System Board of Trustees for a three-year term beginning Jan. 1, 2026, and expiring Dec. 31, 2028. The clerk read Resolution 26 I 10 and Justice Lewis moved for adoption; the clerk recorded 12 ayes and 3 absent and the resolution passed.
The court also approved Resolution 26 I 13 amending a prior resolution to reflect a change of company name from Headlands Tech Holdings LLC to its subsidiary Arkansas Tech Systems LLC. Justice Lewiston moved to adopt the resolution; it passed on a 12–0 roll call with three members absent.
Resolution 26 I 14 certified the county’s endorsement of CEP USA Incorporated to participate in the Consolidated Incentive Tax Back Act of 2003. Justice Young Baker moved for adoption and the resolution passed with 12 ayes and 3 absent.
On the ordinances docket, the court adopted Ordinance 26 I 09 (as amended), an amendment to the county’s annual budget to recognize and appropriate grant funds for the Eleventh Division Circuit Courts ADH peer recovery specialist grant. Justice Massey moved for adoption; the clerk recorded 12 ayes and 3 absent, and the ordinance was approved.
The final ordinance enacted during the meeting, Ordinance 26 I 12, rezoned Lots 8 through 10, Block E of the Mead Subdivision from R-2 residential to C-1 neighborhood commercial. Justice Ward moved to adopt the ordinance; it passed on the same 12–0 recorded vote with three absent.
There was no substantive debate recorded on these items during the meeting. The clerk handled roll calls for each vote and the chair declared each measure adopted after the clerk announced the tally. The court closed the meeting after a brief announcements period that included birthday recognition for the county clerk and reminders about upcoming runoff elections.
The clerk recorded 12 ayes and 3 absent on each recorded roll-call vote reported during the session; individual member vote entries were read aloud in roll call as part of the clerk’s tally. Specific dollar amounts tied to the peer recovery specialist grant and other financial details were read only as part of the ordinance caption and were not expanded upon in the discussion, so the appropriation amount is not specified in the meeting transcript.
