ALTO, Ga. — New details have emerged about the emergency called meeting scheduled for Friday, December 12 at 6 p.m. in the Town of Alto and is open to the public.
When reached for comment Thursday afternoon, Mayor Gail Armour confirmed that the urgency behind the meeting comes directly from within the town’s Water Department.
“The employees of the Alto Water Department wanted to address the town council,” Armour told Habersham News.
When asked what specific issue prompted the emergency classification, Armour declined to elaborate, saying only:
“That’s all I’m going to say about that.”
The limited comment suggests that the matter may involve personnel, internal operations, or a situation requiring immediate council awareness.
Background
The meeting agenda lists “Water Department Discussion” as the sole item of New Business, with no old business or administrative approvals planned.
