Mayor Worrell called the meeting to order at 5:00 p.m. He advised that the meeting had been called to interview the candidates who had applied to fill the vacant Council position.
He explained that each candidate would be called in separately and asked the same list of questions.
The candidates interviewed were Michael G. Aamodt, Glenn W. Baublitz, Jr., Robert N. Glenn, Marilyn J. Hitesman, H. M. Kidd, Robert E. Wallace.
The list of questions were:
What do you see as your role and responsibilities as a member of Town Council?
In your opinion, what are the top two priorities for the town and how would you address them?
What is your vision for “growing” Pulaski? How will it be implemented?
Do you think it is important to engage our youth in the growth of the Town and if yes, how would you propose doing this?
Name three positive things about the Town and how you would promote these and other positives?
How do you see tourism fitting into the Town’s strategic planning and if it does to what extent (amount) would you think should be funded?
At 6:20 p.m., there being no further questions, the meeting adjourned on motion by Councilman Burchett, seconded by Councilman Clark and carried on voice vote.
