Terry Acuff, of Community Consultants, presented grant proposals to the council.
The Fayette City Council agreed to give Mayor Rod Northam its consent to hire a new police officer during its July 27 meeting. All council members were present for the meeting. At the start of the meeting, Fayette Freewill Baptist Church Pastor Adrian Nottonson led the council in prayer. Fayette Police Chief Danny Jenkins told the council that he needs to hire another officer to be back to full strength. He recommended that the council give its consent to hire Keiontae Brent as an officer. Jenkins said that Brent is a native of Fayette and would be someone who would be a good addition to the police force.
