On Tuesday evening, the Lawrence County Commission convened for a special session. The meeting commenced with a commendation of the 2024 Cal Ripken All-Star teams, specifically the 6 and under, 9 and under, and 10 and under squads, all of which achieved remarkable success by securing state championships. Following this celebration of local athletic talent, the commission shifted its attention to the agenda at hand.
During the session, members voted to modify the budget for the years 2024-2025. Additionally, they amended a resolution concerning the Lawrence County Solid Waste Contract, which has now been awarded to No Accept. This decision will lead to the immediate rebidding of the contract, ensuring that the county’s waste management needs are effectively met.
Furthermore, the commission approved a resolution to reappoint Tereasa Purcell, Tyler McDow, and Brad Neilson to the 911 Board. In a related decision, Jay Moore was appointed to take over the position previously held by Alanna Harris. These actions reflect the commission’s ongoing commitment to both community service and effective governance.
