Tallassee Council Approves Music Event Setup and New City Ordinances

The City Council of Tallassee, Alabama, convened on April 9, 2024, at the Tallassee Municipal Complex under the leadership of Mayor Sarah Hill. The meeting started at 6:00 p.m. with most members present, except Councilmember Terrel Brown. The council unanimously approved the minutes from the previous meeting on March 12, 2024, and moved on to discuss several civic issues.

One major topic was the Sounds and Sirens music event planned for April 27, 2024. Eric Jones, a representative for the event organizers, proposed closing S. Ann Street from Barnett to James for the day to set up the event. The council approved this request unanimously after a motion by Councilmember Hall and a second by Councilmember Taunton.

Additionally, the council passed Ordinance 2024-691, which regulates grass maintenance within city limits. The ordinance was quickly adopted after a unanimous vote to suspend the rules.

The council also made decisions on administrative matters, including approving the disposal of old equipment from the Recreation Department and changing the name on local business licenses for beer and wine sales. These actions aim to manage city resources effectively and support local businesses.
