The Fayette City Council discussed proposed fire department policy changes, received updates on paving projects and the city’s America 250 celebration, and addressed several other matters during its June 23 meeting. All council members were present. Southside Baptist Church pastor Kent Shepherd led the group in prayer and the Pledge of Allegiance, and the meeting was called to order. The council approved minutes from the previous meeting. The first agenda item was a request from Fayette County Department of Human Resources Director Sabrina Brashier, who asked the city to consider providing funding assistance for community needs. Brashier said DHR recently established a food closet at its office and is seeking resources to help keep it stocked. She also noted that the agency frequently encounters residents needing assistance with utility bills, transportation to medical appointments and other emergency needs.
