The Locust Grove City Council moved its February regular meeting a week later than normal, the second Monday of the month instead of the first, meaning the council will convene at the beginning of next week.

  Two pieces of property will be considered for annexation and rezoning. Both are 24-acre tracts on Davis Lake Road. The only rezoning would be changing from the county into the city while keeping the RA (residential-agricultural) designation, since there are no plans now to further develop either property.

  Public hearings for the annexations and rezoning, which are four separate agenda items, took place at the council’s January 21 workshop meeting.

  Three unrelated items were approved at the workshop meeting: the service delivery strategy agreement with the county; reappointment of members to the Locust Grove Events Committee; and design-construction plans for the Peeksville Road extension.

  According to a city staff report, the main items that have changed since the last approved SDS in 2009 are police, fire, parks/recreation and roads for the city. Police and fire are changed in terms of requirements of a special service district for taxation purposes. In parks/recreation, the city has agreed to certain terms of operation of active parks and will turn over a portion of development impact fees for capital improvements of those parks. The city has committed to assess and collect impact fees for fire services once the service area and new projects are compiled for assessment by the county.

  The Locust Grove Events Committee in 2020 will be chaired by Police Chief Jesse Patton. The vice chair is Main Street Program manager Anna Ogg, with the other two offices filled by volunteer Barbara Price (secretary) and assistant city clerk Jennifer Adkins (treasurer).

  Council members Willie Taylor and Keith Boone are serving on the committee along with Mayor Robert Price, city customer service representative Sarah Brown, and four other volunteers — Otis Hammock, Sammy Brown, Claire Brown and Viann Doerr.
