Lebanon City — At its Nov. 10 meeting the Lebanon City Council approved several committee recommendations and motions in a series of roll-call votes, including grants, an ordinance, and payments.
Key approvals recorded in the meeting transcript: - A $4,950 grant to Tie Dottton (applicant spelling in transcript) for exterior porch repairs (finance committee recommendation). The council approved the recommendation by roll call. - An ordinance declaring certain streets surplus and authorizing their sale (ordinance committee recommendation). Approved by roll call. - A resolution authorizing execution of a lease with De Martin Roofing Company Inc.; the council voted to approve and accepted amended lease language pending tax-abatement efforts (see separate coverage). - A recommendation from the R.J.

The council approved that payment by roll call. - Public property committee recommendations to (a) close City Hall at 312 W. Street on Nov. 21, 2025 and reopen at 405 N.

The meeting record shows all votes listed above passed on roll calls with council members recorded in favor in the transcript; no recorded defeats or abstentions were in the meeting record. Where transcript spellings or item labels vary (for example, applicant and contractor names), articles above preserve the transcript’s wording and flag unclear spellings for staff follow-up.
Next steps: staff follow-up items include pursuing any county tax abatements tied to the lease and providing corrected numeric figures when available.
