Clanton City Council unanimously adopts four resolutions, approves easement with Alabama Power
Summary
At a six-minute meeting May 21, 2026, the Clanton City Council unanimously adopted four resolutions including a fireworks display agreement with Alabama Pyrotechnics and an easement with Alabama Power Company; a resident asked about local cold-storage needs.
Mayor Jeff Price presided over the Clanton City Council meeting at Clanton City Hall on May 21, 2026, where the council unanimously adopted four resolutions and handled routine business in a meeting that lasted about six minutes.
The council approved Resolution 2026-05-21-01 authorizing a display agreement with Alabama Pyrotechnics, LLC; Resolution 2026-05-21-02 to select architects for city capital improvement projects; Resolution 2026-05-21-03 approving an easement agreement with Alabama Power Company; and Resolution 2026-05-21-04 declaring certain items surplus and authorizing their disposal. Each motion passed by unanimous voice vote of the council members present.
Why it matters: The display agreement affects public events and safety planning; the architect selections set the city’s procurement path for upcoming capital projects; the easement permits utility access or infrastructure changes on city property; and declaring equipment surplus allows the city to dispose of or repurpose municipal assets.
