Clarksville redevelopment commissioners sworn in; Allen Butts confirmed as 2025 chair
Summary
At its Jan. 28 meeting the Clarksville Redevelopment Commission swore in commissioners for 2025 and unanimously approved Allen Butts as chair. The clerk treasurer administered the oath and the new chair then took over officer appointments.
The Clarksville Redevelopment Commission opened its Jan. 28 meeting with the clerk treasurer administering the oath of office for commissioners, instructing members to "raise your hand and say I" as they pledged to "investigate and study" and to promote the interests of Clarksville and its inhabitants.
Following the oath, a commissioner moved to nominate Allen Butts for chairman of the commission for 2025; the motion was seconded and the clerk announced the vote as unanimous. The clerk then handed the meeting over to Butts to oversee appointments for vice chair and secretary. The clerk treasurer said, "As Clerk Treasurer, I have the duty to swear you in for the year and then, oversee the election of your officers." (Clerk Treasurer, SEG 006)
Commissioners spent several turns attempting to fill the vice-chair slot; nominations were made, seconded and met with both opposition and abstentions in the recorded exchange. The transcript does not record a clear, final roll-call result for the vice-chair vote.
