The Lawrenceburg City Council convened for a regular meeting on Thursday, February 26, 2026, where all agenda items were approved without objections or delays.
A significant update from the meeting was the designation of Fire Station 4 as the Administrative Headquarters for the Fire Department. This change means that a truck will now respond to certain emergency calls directly from Fire Station 4. However, daily call responses will continue to operate from other fire stations in the area, ensuring that the community remains well-served.
In addition to this update, Matt Long has assumed leadership of the Fire Department’s dive team. This leadership change is expected to enhance the team’s effectiveness in responding to water-related emergencies.
The council also approved a change order for the Springer Road Extension Phase I Project. This approval marks a crucial step in the ongoing development of local infrastructure. Furthermore, the council relinquished a 2001 LUS utility easement on the Lanning Property Trust #1, which may facilitate future developments on that property.
Additionally, a public hearing was announced regarding the proposed annexation of 15.65 acres owned by Lane Freeman. This hearing will provide an opportunity for community members to voice their opinions and concerns regarding the annexation.
It is important to note that the announcement did not include specific details about contact information, requirements, or payment methods related to these updates. As the city progresses with these initiatives, further information may be provided to the public to ensure transparency and community engagement.
