Council authorizes bid solicitation for 1201 Casey fencing and renews Ready Rebound employee benefit
Summary
Council granted permission to seek bids for fencing at 1201 Casey, as part of preparing a site for public works expansion, and approved a renewal of a Ready Rebound agreement offering expedited orthopedic appointments for injured employees.
City Manager Nathan McKenna told the Mount Vernon City Council the public works crew has begun clearing the property at 1201 Casey, which the city acquired last year and has budgeted for a new building this year; he asked for permission to seek bids for fencing at the site. Council Member Donte Moore moved to grant permission to seek bids; Council Member Joe Gliosci seconded and the motion passed unanimously.
McKenna also presented a resolution to renew an agreement with Ready Rebound, Inc., a program the city started three years ago that allows injured employees or their family members to obtain an orthopedic appointment within a day instead of waiting weeks or months. Council Member Donte Moore moved to approve the resolution; Council Member Joe Gliosci seconded and the council approved the renewal unanimously. The minutes record the resolution as "Resolution #202611."
Mayor John Lewis closed with an announcement reminding residents that early voting has begun. The council had no visitors or public addresses recorded at the meeting.
