Byron council approves RFPs, appointments, maintenance agreement and grant submissions
Summary
On Sept. 12 the City of Byron council unanimously approved a series of routine actions including surplus of a city vehicle, multiple RFPs, Planning & Zoning reappointments, a preventive maintenance agreement for two generators, grant submissions (LMIG) and other administration items.
The City of Byron Mayor and Council on Sept. 12 approved a series of administrative and contracting actions, including authorizing multiple requests for proposals, reappointing Planning & Zoning members, opening a fire department donations account and approving a preventive maintenance contract for two generators.
Council approved surplusing a 2015 Dodge Charger (VIN FH906834) and authorized advertising RFPs for FY2023 waste disposal and landscape maintenance. James Richardson moved to reappoint Darrell Lettice, Louis Evans and April Hodges to the Planning & Zoning Commission, a motion seconded by Michael Chumbley and approved unanimously.
The council approved opening a new bank account for Fire Department donations and adopted a resolution authorizing the mayor to execute a preventive maintenance agreement with Energy Generation Solutions, Inc. to service two generators: one at the fire department and a second for the radio repeater at the water tower. The resolution was filed with the city clerk.
Other approvals included the FY2023 LOST distribution certificate, leasing a copier for the City Clerk and Public Works administration from Ashley Business Solutions, and authorizing a Permanent BMP Maintenance Agreement with Halpern Enterprises, Inc. (Starbucks‑Byron) related to tax map 055D 096. The agenda item proposing a new traffic signal was tabled.
Council also authorized submission of the Local Maintenance & Improvement Grant (LMIG) FY2023 application, agreed to provide the required 30% local match and authorized the mayor to sign the joint LMIG contract. The council authorized advertising the bid package for Phase 1 of the 2021 TEA project.
Because Mayor Michael Chidester disclosed prior legal work for an annexation applicant, he temporarily yielded the gavel to Mayor Pro Tem Michael Chumbley for consideration of a covenant to annex at 436 Sledge Road requested by Ronald Waddell; council approved the covenant. At 6:48 p.m. the council went into closed session under O.C.G.A. 50‑14‑2 to discuss real estate and reconvened in open session at 7:12 p.m., adjourning at 7:13 p.m.
