Fayette council advances projects, sees steady finances despite March dip

The Fayette City Council moved through a full agenda Monday night, approving contract renewals, hearing a proposal for revitalizing a downtown park and reviewing city finances, with officials expressing confidence that revenues remain on track despite a recent dip in monthly sales tax collections.
The meeting opened with an invocation from Fayette Church of God Pastor Jarrett Lovelace and the Pledge of Allegiance led by Alana Lovelace. All council members were present. The council approved minutes from the April 14 meeting and moved into regular business.
