Jenkins council approves routine minutes, financial report and up-to-$60,000 loan for fire truck
Summary
At its Sept. 3 special meeting the Jenkins council approved August minutes and a financial report, and voted to authorize a loan up to $60,000 to help the fire department purchase a used truck; vote tallies were not specified in the transcript.
The City of Jenkins council voted on several routine and operational items during the Sept. 3 special meeting.
Minutes and financial report
The council approved the minutes from the August regular meeting and a prior special meeting after motions, seconds and aye votes were recorded. The transcript captures the procedural approvals but does not include a roll-call tally by name.
Fire-truck loan
Chair (speaker 1) asked the council to approve entering a loan of up to $60,000 through Community Trust Bank to cover a shortfall on a fire truck purchase. The chair said the truck purchased was an older International listed at about $76,000 and that the department had some state aid that would cover a portion of future payments. After a motion and second the chair called for a vote and recorded the motion as adopted.
Jenkins Middle School request
The council also addressed a Jenkins Middle School baseball road-block request; the chair asked whether any conflicts existed and the council proceeded with a motion and second on that item during the meeting.
The meeting transcript records the procedural approvals and the chair's explanation for the loan but does not provide explicit roll-call vote tallies by member names for these items.
