The Maysville Board of Aldermen voted unanimously on Dec. 30, 2024, to adopt Ordinance No. 2024-16 granting a franchise to Brightspeed of East Missouri, LLC to operate and maintain a telecommunications system in the city following two title-only readings and roll-call votes recorded in the minutes.
The Maysville Board of Aldermen on Dec. 30 approved Ordinance No. 2024-16, granting a franchise to Brightspeed of East Missouri, LLC to operate and maintain a telecommunications system within the city.
Alderman Clint Sollars moved to place the ordinance on its first reading by title only; Alderman Amy Justus seconded and the minutes record roll-call votes of Justus, Sollars and Larry Zieber as "yes," carrying the motion.
