The Dalton City Council meets on Tuesday at 6 p.m. in City Hall. The meeting will be livestreamed on the city’s YouTube channel.
The council members are scheduled to vote on a $66,500 agreement with Data & Sound Specialties of Blue Ridge for new cameras and a new door access system at City Hall.
They are also expected to vote on a temporary construction easement and quitclaim deed for 701 Greenwood Drive. The easement would allow the city to complete elements of the Ridge Street Stormwater Bypass Project that encroach onto the property. The quitclaim deed is for half of the unopened Ridge Street right of way. City records show the unopened right of way was approved by the council in 1986 but a quitclaim deed was never signed.
The council members are also expected to vote on an amendment to the 2023 budget. That amendment would adjust revenue to account for $409,000 in income from insurance premium taxes and interest income. It includes $226,875 in expenditures and transfers out including $133,000 moved to the capital fund, $75,000 for the new administrator in Municipal Court and other court expenses, and $60,000 for a new heating and air conditioning unit for the old post office that now houses the Carpet and Rug Institute and the Greater Dalton Chamber of Commerce.
They are also expected to vote to certify the results of the Dec. 5 runoff for a Board of Education seat won by incumbent Tulley Johnson.
