The Alexander City Council will have a second reading of an ordinance that, if approved, will allow Alexander to join other Saline County cities and the unincorporated areas of the county in contracting for Emergency Medical Services (EMS) with one provider. Because only four council members attended the March meeting there could only be one public reading of the ordinance. In order to suspend the second and third readings and declare an emergency for passage two-thirds of the council, six members, must be present. If at least six council members are present it is expected the required second and third readings will be suspended and the Emergency Clause will be approved allowing the ordinance to take effect immediately.
Also on the agenda for the April 19 meeting; the council is being asked to approve the purchase of a milling machine for the street department, council members will meet the new City Attorney/Prosecutor Lana M. Fraser and Ashton Tolliver, an engineer with the City of Alexander Fire/Rescue Department, will be presented with a Life Saver Award.
The next meeting of the Alexander City Council is Monday, April 19 at 6:00 PM in the courtroom at city hall. The public is invited to attend. Covid-19 protocols are still in place.
