The City of Memphis Council on Jan. 6, 2026, unanimously approved several routine contracts and financial actions.
The council voted to award the contract for a new city hall sign to Mega Led Technologies after a motion by Councilmember Mazur, supported by Zimmer. The motion carried by unanimous vote.
Councilmember Zimmer moved, with Mazur supporting, to approve Solutions Renovations to perform lighting and electrical work at the city library for $2,800.00; that motion carried unanimously.
On a motion by Zimmer, supported by Mazur, the council approved a "Performance Resolution for Municipalities" that designates DPW Superintendent Bart Dunsmore and Fire Chief Pratt as authorized signatories for the specified purposes in the resolution; the motion carried by unanimous vote.
The council also approved transferring road millage funds into the equipment/replacement fund to collect more interest. The transfer was approved on a motion by Zimmer, supported by Sopha, and the motion carried unanimously.
