The Summerville City Council will hold their November meeting coming up this evening at 5 PM at Summerville City Hall.  The council has a full agenda for tonight’s meeting.  The council will be asked to vote to authorize Mayor Harry Harvey to sign a resolution for mandatory PTSD insurance for city employees.

Also, the council will be voting on Christmas bonuses at the meeting.  The council is expected to vote to authorize City Manager Jason Winters to seek Water First Designation for the city. The Water First designation in Georgia is a voluntary program that recognizes local governments for their commitment to water resource management. The program was launched in 2002 to encourage communities to go beyond legal requirements to protect and manage water resources. Also, the council will be asked to authorize the city manager to seek a Rural Zone Designation, a program that provides tax credits to businesses and individuals that create jobs and invest in historic downtown areas. The program is intended to stimulate economic development, investment, and job creation in rural areas.

Tonight’s meeting will be preceded by a question and answer session with the mayor and city council at 4:30 PM.  The public is invited to attend.  You can see a complete agenda for tonight’s meeting below:
