Buckner council appoints Kyle Leaves as W3 alderman; routine minutes, bills and festival contracts approved
Summary
The council approved minutes and bill payments, appointed Kyle Leaves as Ward 3 alderman and administered an oath, set the fall cleanup for Oct. 4, and approved festival vendor contracts for bounce houses and a DJ.
The Buckner City Council handled a series of routine administrative items and a personnel appointment during the meeting.
Early in the meeting the council approved the August 21 study-session minutes and the bill payment (referred to as the 'Second bill') by voice vote. The council then opened the public-comment period.
Councilors considered and approved the appointment of Kyle Leaves to serve as Ward 3 alderman; the appointee was present and took the oath of office. The oath recited support for the U.S. and state constitutions and a pledge to serve the city impartially.
The council set the fall cleanup date for October 4 after discussion of scheduling conflicts with a festival, and approved vendor contracts for the Festival in the Valley that include two bounce houses, an obstacle course and a DJ for Friday and Saturday; presenters said inflatables will be shut down at dark.
No roll-call vote tallies were recorded in the transcript for the approvals; motions were made, seconded and carried by voice vote. The meeting closed after brief official comments praising public-works crews and a motion to adjourn.
Next steps: newly appointed Alderman Leaves will assume duties; staff will post event and cleanup details to the city calendar.
