Shelbina council approves surplus-equipment sales, newspaper ads and schedules meeting change
Summary
The Shelbina City Council accepted bids for a generator and dump truck, authorized an ad for remaining surplus equipment and approved a Christmas ad in the Shelby County Herald; the council also noted a Planning & Zoning review of a proposed food truck and reported that a demolition grant review is being reworked after all applicants were initially rejected.
The Shelbina City Council on Oct. 28 accepted bids for surplus equipment, authorized advertisements to sell remaining items, approved a Christmas advertisement and adjusted meeting scheduling while tabling a decision on City Marshal pay until the full council can be present.
On the surplus equipment, the council accepted Phil Baker’s bids for a Generac generator for $3,000 and a 2002 GMC dump truck for $500 on a motion by Chad Wharton, seconded by James Simpson. The council also authorized running an advertisement in the local paper to solicit offers for remaining surplus items (motion by Nick Broughton, seconded by James Simpson).
Under new business, James Simpson moved and the council approved placing a Christmas ad in the Shelby County Herald; the council declined to place an ad in the county calendar. Council Member Nick Broughton moved to change the Nov. 12 council meeting date to either Nov. 10 or Nov. 18 depending on auditor scheduling; Chad Wharton seconded and the motion carried. The clerk will coordinate with the auditors to confirm the new meeting date.
City Superintendent Brian Fifer told the council that a demolition grant reviewer had rejected all 20 applicants after identifying a procedural default in the review process. The reviewer will redefine procedures, notify applicants of deficiencies and allow resubmission. The council also noted that a letter about the possibility of a food truck will be reviewed by the Planning and Zoning Commission at its Oct. 30 meeting.
The council voted to enter closed session at 6:14 p.m.; it reconvened at 6:27 p.m. and adjourned the meeting at 6:31 p.m.
