desire good things for it. Lord, we do
pray your blessing, your anointing, your
wisdom, your counsel um upon each and
every member of the community, but
especially our city council.
God, we ask that you'd lead them and
guide them as far as
uh figuring out the the complexities of
what's best for our city both now as
well as into the future.
And Lord, we do pray that um
uh Loganville would grow more and more
into a city in which is a a city on a
hill that is a light, that is a place
that um Lord, is just a great place to
live.
We do pray that your blessing upon this
meeting
God, it would be fruitful towards those
ends.
And um
Lord, we do ask all of this in the
precious name, Lord and Savior Jesus

as
uh Mayor Whitfield said, I'm new to the
to the ministry and and new to the town.
My wife and I actually would just We
closed on a house. We're super excited
to actually be living in Loganville.
We're one of those people who believe
that God's called us this community and
so we want to be a part of it in every
way and uh just as a as a church we
really want to do what we can to serve
the people uh to fill in the holes where
maybe other people can't help this uh
the community in ways that it needs help
and uh just to do what we can to just um
show people the love of Christ both in
word and deed and um and hopefully
you know, my opinion is that as as
believers or my belief I should say is
as followers of Jesus we're called to do
good works which means that that we are
aware of the needs of the people around
us and we do what we can to meet those
needs as as God enables us. And so uh
anyway, we just hope to be a
contributing member of the community in
a greater way. We've had uh I know
that's declined in recent years but uh
I've basically have been brought in for
that very purpose of doing what we can
as a church to to bless all of you all
as best we can. So, uh thanks for the
privilege of being a part of the
community.

Oh goodness.
» Good evening Mayor, council members.
I'm Shane Short with the Development
Authority Walton County. It's a pleasure
to be with you all this evening.
I'm here on the behalf of Dessa Morris
who works in my office.
She decided that remaining on her
European cruise is more important than
>> [laughter]
» [laughter]
>> coming back early to be with you tonight
» coming back early to be with you tonight
so she asked me to step be
her shoes tonight.
One of the goals of the Walton 250
celebration
as we celebrated our nation's 250th
anniversary or birthday
uh was that the people, organizations,
and communities that make such Walton
County such a great place had different
areas of of celebrations during that
time period.
One of those was a partnership with the
Azalea Regional Library System
who launched the very first mayors
reading cup challenge.
And communities competed by reading
books, writing reviews,
and competing library activities
throughout the entire month of the
celebration in July.
And tonight, I'm excited to recognize
the overall champion.
Congratulations to Mayor Brandon
Whitfield and the entire team in the
O'Kelly Memorial Library for winning
this year's inaugural reading cup.
>> [cheering]
» [cheering]
[applause]
» There were 375
student participants.
105 adult participants.
And 480 total points that were given,
which was more than double the next
closest library in the system.
The highest number of books were logged
and the most book reviews submitted and
the highest overall participation in the
challenge.
So, congratulations to all of you. It
tells a wonderful story in the
commitment of Loganville and its
community.
So, Mayor, I'm going to ask you if you
would please step forward so that I can
present you with the cup and this
special 3D printed
mayors reading challenge. And we
encourage you to wear this every day.
>> [laughter]
» [laughter]
>> If you would please do so.
» Talk about the chain.
All right, here we go.
» [laughter]
>> And mayor, there is also
» And mayor, there is also
a cup but before I give to the mayor
this, I'm going to ask if there's any
library staff here tonight, any
of the board members with the library
system, any of you here tonight. If you
would just please come forward as we
present this trophy.
You all come up here and stand with us.
As we present you all the 2026 Walton
County Mayor's Reading Challenge winner
to the Loganville Library System.
Here we go.
Congratulations to YOU ALL AGAIN.
>> [applause and cheering]
[applause]
[laughter]
» YES, BUT NO.
THANK YOU ALL SO MUCH. IT REALLY does
mean a lot because
here in Loganville, I know libraries can
be a sore subject at times.
And I know we have a community that
really wants to lead and and actually
want to read. And it just shows by
winning this cup all the people that
want to participate and be able to do
stuff like this. And thank you to all
the library staff for doing this. I will
say
it was supposed to be a surprise. It's
still kind of surprising cuz I didn't
know it was actually going to be on the
agenda.
Uh
um
So, I'm a little touched here, but
it's uh
Dust actually let it slip at a meeting a
couple days ago and said
congratulations. I said, "For what?" And
actually John Howard said, "You won the
cup." I go, "What cup?" And then he told
me. I go, "Oh, yeah."
And [laughter]
so, thank [snorts] y'all so much for
everything. I do appreciate it.
So,
I guess the fun stuff is over. Let's uh
let's get down to the consent agenda.
And Pastor, you you don't have to stay
if you don't want to. I understand this.
>> Bye, everybody.
» Bye, everybody.
>> Uh
Mhm. 2A, yes. Okay. So, first up on our
agenda is going to be the mayor and
council items. They're going to be the
proposals for the city manager
recruitment.
All right. I know we had a slight
discussion on it about wanting to wait
to digest this third one that came in
the day of.
And I know we talked about maybe
postponing this until we could get the
people in here to do a presentation.
And maybe do a called meeting if we can
get that lined up. Is that still the
flavor that y'all want to do? Has
anything changed?
All right. Good deal.
So, let's go on down to the consent
agenda. So, the consent agenda for those
who do not know is the agenda items that
we all agreed to on Monday. And on
there, it goes from A through I, which
is everything that we voted on Monday to
make this meeting go a little bit
quicker. And uh
We need clarity.

say Thursday or Monday?

posts on there about the gravel. The

That's just the base. So, there'll be a
rubber mat
on on top. And then also, just be
thinking, um,
council,
we talked about
dedicating a piece of equipment to to
honor Janice and Harold Tribble. Um, so,
we got to kind of start making that I'm
thinking thinking of a concrete
some type of concrete monument to match
the other concrete monument we have for
the young lady that passed away that she
has that one
>> Mhm.
» Mhm.
>> uh, shade structure that's kind of her
» uh, shade structure that's kind of her
area. That was known as her area. That's
something that former
uh, Mayor Martinez did. So, y'all kind
of be thinking, um,
what you'd like to see. You know, I
think we should do an honor. It was
going to be Janice, but now that
Harold's passed, we should probably do
Harold and Janice. I think we have that
support from y'all.
Uh, it'll be after the project's
complete. Um,
and then we'll
have a some type of a
placement of it.
All right. So, y'all be thinking about
what you'd like to say. If you got any
suggestions, please send them to Jeff or
myself.

but you know, we got a lot of new
equipment so we might be something new
out there, but we'll let it open and
we'll let it see and then y'all think
about it.
