Tunica County board votes to pursue separate bond for town project, recesses until June 22

A clerk for the Tunica County board said the board voted to enter an executive session at 4:40 p.m., and that, while in executive session, the board approved pursuing a separate bond under “option 2” for agreements tendered for a town project. The clerk reported the vote tally as 5–0.

The clerk read the attendees present: board president Daley, vice president Johnson, supervisor Dunson, supervisor Williams, supervisor Nixon, county administrator Dr. Willis, Miss Siggers, and county board attorney John Peery. Road department attendees listed included road manager Stewart and road engineer Andy Richardson. The clerk summarized the executive-session action as: "the board voted during executive session to get a bond separate pursuant to option 2 on the agreements that were tendered from the project on town." (Transcript phrasing retained and paraphrased for clarity; the transcript did not specify the project name or the bond terms.)

After the executive-session announcement, the chair asked for a motion to recess. The chair stated the intention to recess until Monday, June 22 at 4:00 p.m.; the transcript did not record the names of the motion maker or seconder for the recess or a separate roll-call tally for that motion. The meeting was recessed with the next session scheduled for June 22 at 4:00 p.m.

The transcript provides limited detail about the underlying town project, the scope or amount of the bond, or the specific contractual agreements referenced. Those particulars and any related timelines or financial terms were not specified in the record available.
