Lometa council approves purchase of new 72-inch mower
Summary
At a special meeting April 17, 2025, the Lometa City Council voted unanimously to buy a new 72-inch mower for city use; the motion was made by Councilmember Karen Chism and seconded by Councilmember Gloria Martin.
The Lometa City Council unanimously approved buying a new 72-inch mower for the city on April 17, 2025, during a special called meeting at City Hall. Mayor Derek Talley called the meeting to order at 10:02 a.m., and councilmembers moved quickly to address the lone action item on the agenda.
Councilmember Karen Chism moved to purchase the mower "as soon as possible," and Councilmember Gloria Martin seconded the motion. The minutes record that the motion passed unanimously; the council then adjourned at 10:10 a.m. The meeting did not include any public commenters during Open Forum.
The action authorizes city staff to proceed with procurement for a commercial-grade mower sized for municipal grounds maintenance. The minutes do not specify the vendor, purchase price, funding source, or an implementation timeline; those details were not provided in the meeting record and are therefore not specified here. The council has a vacant seat noted in the roll call.
