Mayor’s Message
Our meeting was held on January 5, 2012 at 6:00 P.M. I called the meeting to order and Alderman Ray
Lancaster gave the invocation. The minutes were approved from last month’s meeting. The claims
docket and the misc. claims docket were approved.
Our grills for the pavilion have been delivered but we are still in need of one more donation. The
Taylorsville Rotary Club purchased a grill this past Thursday. Anyone wishing to use the grills must
contact the Town Hall. A new “Stop” sign will be installed on Central Street and Forrest Street. You need to
be aware of the additional sign and remember to come to a complete stop. The remaining street signs
will be installed this month, also.
