Council asks attorney to draft Sycamore Road tractor-trailer restriction
Summary
Saltville council voted to have the town attorney draft an ordinance to prohibit through tractor-trailer traffic on Sycamore Road, following a unanimous committee recommendation. The move triggers a formal drafting and future public review process.
Saltville Town Council voted Nov. 12 to have the town attorney draft an ordinance to restrict through tractor-trailer traffic on Sycamore Road.
Councilman Ryan Comer said his Ordinances & Land Management Committee voted unanimously to ask Town Attorney Paul Cassell "to draft an ordinance to prohibit 'No through tractor trailer traffic' on the Sycamore Road area of town." The council approved the motion by roll call vote.
The ordinance drafting is an initial procedural step; council did not hold a public hearing or adopt the rule at the Nov. 12 meeting. Paul Cassell will prepare the draft for future council consideration and public comment. The record shows a formal motion and unanimous vote to proceed with drafting, but no ordinance text was presented at the meeting.
Next steps include the attorney's drafting work and return to council for potential readings, scheduling of a public hearing, and formal adoption votes. Councilmembers did not specify a timeline for the next meeting on this item.
