LUTTRELL CITY HALL — Progress pushes forward at the City of Lutrell’s first meeting of the new year.
Water and Sewer
Relief is on the way for some Luttrell residents. In its January meeting, city council approved an amendment that would change the current sewer ordinance to stop the billing of those residents who do not have a sewer pump or tank installed on their property or do not have sewer service. However, if a resident has a pump or tank installed, but are not using the service, they will still be required to pay a monthly charge.

Silent Night at City Hall
Maynardville City Hall — It was beginning to look a lot like Christmas at the Maynardville City Hall Tuesday evening. A warm holiday embrace welcomed most of those who attended the Maynardville City Council meeting this month. It was clear, upon first entering the room, that this was no regular meeting. A larger than average crowd of city insiders, family, and employees were present, but they were not there for city business. Rather, they gathered around long tables decorated in seasonal décor in anticipation of a holiday feast that would later come to dominate the night’s agenda.

PLAINVIEW CITY HALL — Despite the holiday slowdown, the City of Plainview still managed to wrap up the year 2006 with a sale, an upgrade, and an update.
K-9 Unit Sold
The city received one bid, in the amount of $1,200.00, for the K-9 unit that was placed in surplus at last month’s November meeting. The bid, made by Randy Flatford, was approved by council after a motion from Mayor Rodney Minor that the city should accept the offer.
Mr. Randy Flatford is a Constable in Union County’s fourth district and the vehicle will be used in the course of his work.

LUTTRELL CITY HALL - Ups and downs peppered the December Luttrell City Council meeting.
LOW BRIDGE
Some bad news came in the form of a negative bridge evaluation from TDOT. City Council assured us that the bridge is currently safe to use. However, the bridge in question, located on Union Avenue in Jim Town, is old and starting to show signs of wear and tear. The final verdict on whether or not the bridge can be repaired or if it must be replaced, has yet to be determined. Either situation will prompt the City of Luttrell to undertake a substantial financial outlay. With luck, the bridge will not need to be replaced and funds may be augmented by an emergency repair grant from the state. Failing these optimistic projections, the city may find itself facing a blow to both infrastructure as well as its bank account.
