Mulga council OKs up to $20,000 for storm-shelter generator and cancels March 17 meeting
Summary
At its March 5 meeting, the Mulga council approved up to $20,000 to buy a generator for the town storm shelter and voted to cancel the March 17 meeting because several members will be at a conference.
The Mulga Town Council voted unanimously on March 5 to authorize up to $20,000 to purchase a generator for the town’s storm shelter.
Gage Kelley moved to approve the expenditure, and Jeremy Davis seconded. A roll-call vote recorded all five council seats and Mayor W. Keith Varner voting yes. Mayor W. Keith Varner asked council members to “be thinking about a budget for a generator for the storm shelter” before the vote.
The vote came amid a brief consent and business session in which the council also approved minutes from Feb. 17 and authorized bills for payment by unanimous roll-call votes.

Gage Kelley moved and Rachel Davis seconded a motion to cancel the March 17 meeting; the motion passed on a unanimous roll-call vote.
The meeting adjourned by unanimous voice vote. Town Clerk Robin Giardina attested the minutes; Mayor Varner signed the record.
