Council looks at elections, EMS building

Body

The Dublin City Council canceled its May elections and discussed living quarters for EMS staff during its regular meeting Monday.

The vote to cancel elections came after the May 1 City Council races only drew the filing of incumbents Darrell Curry and Sammy Moore for Place 3 and Place 5 respectively. Since there are no challengers, both candidates automatically win their races.

City Manager Bobby Mendez spoke to council members about the EMS living quarters with options including a new stand alone building in the parking lot or tearing down the adjoining rock building that’s in disrepair and putting a new building there. Council members approved the city to look into funding.

Council members also voted to appoint Bill Tidmore on the Board of Adjustments to replace Don Barber.
