Summary

City Administrator Melissa Combs reported on an RFP for asbestos testing tied to a CDBG demolition grant and scheduled a scoring meeting for 6 p.m. July 21; she also announced the hiring of Bryson Tilmon in the Street Department and the promotion of Michael Noble to Fire Department Training Officer.

City Administrator Melissa Combs updated the council on administrative and operational items, saying an RFP for asbestos testing related to the city's CDBG demolition grant had been received but required clarification from CDBG due to holiday and mail issues. "It was decided that a meeting for the scoring would be scheduled for 6 pm on Tuesday, July 21, 2026, prior to the Council Meeting," the minutes state.

Combs also reported personnel actions: Bryson Tilmon was hired for the Street Department and will serve part time as a firefighter; Michael Noble was promoted to Training Officer in the Fire Department to oversee performance standards and employee safety training. The record shows these personnel items were presented as informational updates rather than motions needing council approval in the July 7 minutes.
