In other action, the council approved the appointments of Rickey McCreless, Gurvis Sutherland, Stan Watson and George Russell to the Industrial Development Board.

The council will have a special meeting Monday, September 13, Noon, to consider the alcohol license for The Cave.

The Council also approved the advertising for bids for a new police cruiser; change order #3 to close out the Resurfacing, Storm Water and Drainage Grant; RDS to collect alcohol taxes; and, applying for an RC&D grant for City Lake.
