City Council Agenda
Old Business
1) Judge Ralph Grider was appointed as the Scottsboro Municipal Judge; 2) Judge Charles Dawson was appointed as Assistant Municipal Judge; 3) Ms. Patricia Stewart and Mr. Brian Rice were appointed as City Prosecutors.
New Business
1) Closure of Micah Way from Snodgrass Rd. to the north entry of the WalMart
Shopping Center on Oct 15, 2012 from 3-8PM for a Track Meet was approved. 2) Resolution for airport improvement was approved. 3) Resolution approving the financing of a city fire truck was approved. 4) Resolution of support for an expansion of the Sanoh Company building in the west side industrial park was approved. The Scottsboro Industrial Development Board asked the City council for an agreement to proceed with a bond financing issue to expand the current Sanoh Co. building.
Mr. Roy Light made the presentation to the city council. Mr Light commented after the meeting the amount of the bond financing issue will be approximately $7.7 million. The IDB will have to request at a future date the city council's approval of the bond issue. Mr. Dus Rogers, CEO of the Jackson County EDA, stated Sanoh's expansion project will bring an additional 50-120 jobs to the City of Scottsboro.
5) Jefferson Drive name change was approved to be changed to Hero's Drive effective Jan.1 2013. It was restated that there will be no cost to the street name change; in my opinion, based on observations and considerable research on the issue, an unbelievable statement.
Budget Hearings will be conducted on Oct. 10 @ 5PM, Oct. 15 after the work session and Oct 16 @ 5PM at city hall.
