Columbia City Council meeting, 13 May 2015 Whether or not to keep allocations for Payroll Tax Revenue debated, change proportions, or have all flow into the General Fund was very briefly debated. Some council members want more public input with a formally called Town Meeting with more advance publicity. Mayor Hardwick thinks current process is doing the job. By Ed Waggener There was more contention than usual in the called meeting of the Columbia City County on Thursday, May 13, 2014. What Mayor Hardwick said was the big reason the meeting had been called to address, mayor succession, was not on the agenda, and was challenged by Sharon Burton of the Adair County Community Voice and was withdrawn as an item, and discussion of another major issue, how the money from the Payroll Tax would be handled, was cut short. The Council approves two members of CACEDA The Council did quickly approve, with a unanimous vote, the appointment of Dean Adams, Lindsey Wilson College Dean, and re-appoint Randy Burns, Director of LWC Alumna Affairs, to the Columbia/Adair County Economic Development Board. All five councillors present, Craig Dean, Linda Waggener, Craig Lasley, Charles Grimsley, and Mark Harris voted to approve the appointments. Councillor Ron Rogers was not present. The Council approved Mayor Hardwick's recommendation to place Linda Waggener on the board of the J.O.Y organization as the Council's representative.
