The Mayor told that council that there were conflicts with both scheduled council <br /> meetings in July. After a discussion, Councilmember Matthews moved to cancel both <br /> scheduled meetings in July and have only one meeting on July 19th. Councilmember <br /> Hubbard seconded and all voted for. <br /> The Mayor said there will be a ribbon cutting ceremony at the new Westside Sub-station <br /> for the Sheriff's Department Thursday June 30th at 10:00 AM. <br /> Mayor Elumbaugh said the city's new Parks Director Jeff Owens "had his boots on the <br /> ground" as of this past Monday. He is currently working part time and being paid hourly <br /> during his transition period from Jonesboro to Batesville. <br /> LIAISON REPORTS <br /> None <br /> COUNCIL COMMENTS <br /> Councilmember Bryant commented that he hoped the city, in the near future, <br /> could find additional revenues to establish a "Grant Matching Fund" in order to acquire <br /> Matching Grants for our City. Mr. Bryant said most grants require a 20% monitory <br /> match and therefore the City misses out of the 80% "free" monies for projects that would <br /> improve our city. <br /> ADJOURNMENT <br /> There being no further business, Councilmember Matthews moved that the <br /> meeting be adjourned. Councilmember Bryant seconded and all voted for. <br /> RICK ELUMBAUGH, MAYOR <br /> DENISE M. JOHNSTON, CITY CLERK <br />
