Florence board directs engineering to begin elevated water-tank repurpose project after health inspection
Summary
Responding to a Mississippi Department of Health inspection report, the board authorized Engineering Service to begin work on a repurpose project for an elevated water tank; the motion passed unanimously.
The Florence Board of Aldermen voted unanimously Nov. 4 to authorize Engineering Service to start work on a project to repurpose an elevated water tank after a Mississippi Department of Health inspection report prompted action.
According to the minutes, "A Motion was made by Alderman Sistrunk, seconded by Alderman Herrin, in response to MS Department of Health inspection report, to authorize and direct Engineering Service to begin work on the elevated water tank repurpose project." The motion carried by unanimous vote. The minutes do not include technical details, a project schedule, or a budget estimate; the board directed city engineering staff to begin the work, and follow-up reporting is expected to come to a future meeting.
The item was raised by Street Director David Myers as part of department recommendations and recorded as a board direction to proceed. The board did not record a dollar amount or contract award in the minutes for this project; further procurement or design approvals will be subject to subsequent board action.
