Summary

Council put on first reading an annexation ordinance to add about 1.01 acres adjacent to Dollar Tree (Lawrence County tax map 616 01 01 017); Greenwood hospital board purchased the parcel and the site is slated for a medical facility.

Council advanced first reading of an ordinance to annex approximately 1.01 acres contiguous to Clinton city limits (Lawrence County tax map 616 01 01 017), a parcel behind the front portion previously annexed near Dollar Tree. Mr. Meadows told the council the Greenwood hospital board purchased the acreage and that "it's all going to be used for a medical facility."

A motion to place the annexation on the floor was made by Mr. Kirkindall and seconded by Mr. Cook; after clarifying the address and correcting a typographical street number in the staff report, councilmembers voted in favor and the motion carried. Council did not adopt final ordinance language at this meeting; the transcript records the ordinance on first reading for additional consideration.

Council members asked staff to correct the address (the packet listed a non-existent '119 Highway 56' notation) before future readings. No vote tally by name was recorded in the transcript; outcome in the meeting minutes is recorded as "motion carries."
