Alderman to consider changes to procedure
Placeholder Image
After receiving a warning letter from the state, McMinnville’s new Board of Mayor and Aldermen could be looking at making some changes to city procedure. Comptroller of the Treasury Justin Wilson sent a letter to the city Nov. 5 warning officials about a long-standing procedure that could be against the state’s open meetings act, that of adding items to the agenda during meetings.The situation was spurred by a meeting held Sept. 25 where officials voted to renew the contract of city administrator David Rutherford. The meeting’s agenda did not mention the measure, which was sent to the full board by Finance Committee members who met earlier that night.
