There was no deliberation. Councilor Bromley expressed concerns about Resolution 2025-21, the Fee Schedule adopted at the Special Meeting on Monday, November 24, 2025. It was determined that he was reading the red- line edited document sent to council to note the changes made to the schedule, not the clean copy that was voted on and passed. 6. New Business A. Council was advised of the need to discuss setting and advertising a date and time for a Public Hearing for the Draft Zoning Ordinance, the Draft Zoning Map, and the Draft Subdivision and Land Development Ordinance (SALDO). Councilor Carr-Fisher suggested holding it on Wednesday, January 7, 2026, at 6:30 p.m., because we will not have a work session that night. It was agreed upon to have it on that day and time. There was no deliberation. B. Council was advised of the need to advertise Ordinance 1675, authorizing the recording of the Home Ruler Charter with amendments. Mr. Urey noted he is waiting for a response from General Code to see how they would like to proceed with this, as they codify the ordinances and there are no set rules on how to amend the charter. There was no deliberation. C. Council was advised of the need to adopt Resolution 2025-22, authorizing the sale of the 2015 Dodge Ram 3500 (Fire Department Squad Truck). There was no deliberation. D. Council was advised of the letter received from Mayor Elect Carr-Fisher accepting the Mayor/Council President seat and vacating the Councilor seat, both of which she won in the November 4, 2025, election. Mr. Urey explained that the next step is to read the advertisement at Monday night’s Regular Session Meeting, and the council will authorize the advertisement. There will be a ten (10) day period from the date of advertisement of the notice for letters of interest to be submitted. Mr. Urey will then send the list of applicants to the Mayor and the Mayor-Elect. The names will appear on the January Work Session Agenda, when public interviews will take place. There was no deliberation. Page 2 of 3 Town of Greenville Work Session Minutes 12/03/25 E.
