Houston council adopts Resolution 2025-1 to update town charter
Summary
After a brief public hearing, the Town of Houston council approved Resolution 2025-1 updating the municipal charter. The minutes record the motion by Vice Mayor Tina King, a second by Councilwoman Robin Adkins, and a statement that the motion 'so carried'; no vote tally is given.
The Town of Houston council approved Resolution 2025-1, a measure updating the town charter, at its Feb. 6, 2025 meeting following a brief public hearing.
Councilman Gregory Gilmore moved to open the public hearing on charter review updates at 7:06 p.m.; Councilman Dave Mutter seconded and the hearing was opened. Councilman Mutter then moved to close the public hearing at 7:07 p.m.; Councilwoman Robin Adkins seconded and the hearing was closed.
Vice Mayor Tina King moved to approve Resolution 2025-1 regarding the town charter; Councilwoman Robin Adkins seconded and the motion was recorded as "so carried" in the minutes. The document does not include a roll-call vote or a tally of yes, no or abstain votes. Mayor Gregory Wingo thanked the council and Town Solicitor James Sharp for their work on the charter updates.
The minutes do not specify the substantive language of the charter changes or any implementation timeline. The only procedural note recorded earlier in the meeting is that Mayor Wingo moved to relocate the resolution on the agenda so it would follow the public hearing, a change that the council approved.
The council’s next regular meeting is referenced as March 2025 in the minutes; the record does not indicate additional formal steps for the adopted resolution within these minutes.
