At-a-glance: Pratt commission approves ordinances, rezoning and routine purchases
Summary
The commission adopted two ordinances (disconnection-procedure update and rezoning of 223 S. Oak), approved the mower purchase and a community event, and adjourned; most items passed by voice vote with no roll-call tallies recorded.
At Monday's Pratt City Commission meeting, members approved several ordinances and routine agenda items in a series of voice votes.
Ordinances and rezoning - Ordinance 25-09 (amending disconnection procedures) was approved after staff explained the change adds remote disconnections via the city's smart-meter infrastructure while retaining required notice and dispute processes. Cody Smith (speaker 14) said customers still receive statements, late notices and a final notice, with email/text pre-disconnect messaging if they are signed up for notifications. - Ordinance 25-10 rezoned 223 South Oak from C-3/C-O to R-2 (single-family dwelling) to allow the owner to convert the former Brown Law Office to residential use; Planning & Zoning recommended approval and the commission adopted the ordinance.
Other approvals - Recreation: Commission approved a $15,100 purchase of a John Deere mower from BTI for the recreation department (mover/second noted in transcript). Justin Crouch (speaker 9) had presented competitive bids and recommended BTI. - Events & facilities: The commission approved a car-and-bike show at Lemon Park (Sept. 13, 2025) and authorized Hermes Healthcare to use the municipal Gold Room at a subsidized $100/day rate.
Votes & procedure Most items were approved by voice vote with commissioners saying "aye"; the transcript records approvals but does not provide roll-call vote tallies for each item. The commission adjourned at the meeting's close.
