The Crockett City Council approved four appointments to a Keep Crockett Beautiful (KCB) committee and awarded a painting contract for city facilities.
A presenter named Mr. Shiley introduced four nominees (including three Crockett High School students — Corey Simon, Victoria Medell and Joseph Temple — and Samantha Wiley) and outlined youth‑led projects such as an art trail in Davy Crockett Park and campus beautification. "This young man is going to be in charge of volunteerism in the city of Crockett," the presenter said of nominee Corey Simon, describing plans to engage students in community projects.
Council voted to accept the four members. The presenter described project aims and a planned student survey to collect ideas from area high school students for community improvements.
On a separate agenda item the council considered sealed bids to repaint the Civic Center awnings, the Ag Arena awnings and the large park pavilion. Bids included Shoemake Welding ($85,000) and Lucas Roofing ($77,008.60). Council voted to award the painting contract to Lucas Roofing; staff said the work will be funded from the city’s ARPA allocation.
Council members praised the youth appointees and the potential for student engagement in beautification projects; the record shows staff will follow up on project timelines and paint contract administration.
