Aldermen propose mediation with Fairfield

Although a number of weeks have passed since the cities of Teague and Fairfield have openly quarreled about their differences concerning their interlocal agreement of finances regarding the Boyd unit facilities, that silence may break in the near future.

At a special-called meeting Oct. 2 at Teague City Hall, aldermen passed a motion to ask the City of Fairfield to join the City of Teague in taking the issues at hand to mediation for resolution.

The exact wording of that action read as follows: “Alderman (Jerry) Ballew moved to attend mediation in attempt to resolve all issues with the City of Fairfield and conduct the mediation in the next 30 days with the Mayors and non-quorum of the City Council Members, with Alderman Ballew and (Ryan) Mathison representing Teague’s non- quorum City Council Members and Alderman (Chris) Nickleberry as an alternate, seconded by Alderman Nickleberry. Motion carried 5-0.”
